When stained with iodine and observed under a compound microscope the nucleus will stain the darkest. The cheek cell is frequently employed here as they are simple to collect and tend to take the stain easily.
The chromatin (DNA plus histone protein) in the nucleus takes up more stain than cytoplasm and hence the nucleus appears darker. Cytoplasm is mostly water and therefore doesn't stain as well as the condensed material in the nucleus.
The nucleus of the Cheek cell stains darker than the other parts.
mah balls because they are staiend
The Nucleus
the iodine stains the cell, so we can see the structures better. the nucleus is darkest
In a typical cell the cell wall gets stained most. But sometimes even the nucleus gets stained but more specifically the chromatin material in the nucleus.
You can observe cheek cells
Cytoplasm nucleus and cell membrane containing 46 chromosomes
It is Eukaryote =]

The cheek cell has a nucleus and so does a leaf cell.
There is no nucleus because it is technically a dead cell.
They only thing you can see in a cheek cell would be the nucleus and the cellular membrane. These cells must be stained because they won't be visible under a light microscope all by themselves.

All animal cells have a nucleus.
Cheek cells are normal eukariyotic cells.They have an nucleus.
the strands are a lot tinier than the nucleus of a cheek cell
The nucleus at the central part of the cheek cell contains DNA. When a drop of methylene blue is introduced, the nucleus is stained, which makes it stand out and be clearly seen under the microscope. Although the entire cell appears light blue in color, the nucleus at the central part of the cell is much darker, which allows it to be identified.
