Cells in squash trichomes were stained to enhance visibility under a microscope, allowing for the observation of cellular structures and characteristics. Staining highlights specific components, such as cell walls or nuclei, making it easier to analyze the morphology and arrangement of cells. This technique is essential for studying plant anatomy and can provide insights into the function and development of trichomes.
Having trichomes in trees help in defense mechanism. All trees do not have trichomes.
An azurophile is a cell which has been readily stained with an azure stain.
There are three main types of trichomes: glandular, non-glandular, and cystolithic. Glandular trichomes produce and store essential oils and resins, non-glandular trichomes serve protective functions, and cystolithic trichomes contain calcium carbonate crystals for defense.
yes
The dark stained area in the middle of a cell is likely the nucleus, which contains genetic material (DNA) and is responsible for controlling the cell's activities.
it is the darkly stained part inside the nucleus inside a cell
basically it is colorless, but it takes green color when stained with fast green
The structure that is seen is the cell wall. This keeps the shape of the cell and is only found in plant cells. The organelles that can be see in a stained onion cells all depends on your microscope. Under a x400 light microscope we could see the cell wall, cell membrane, nucleus and cytoplasm,
The fuzzy outer coating found on some leaves is called trichomes. Trichomes can serve various functions, such as protecting the plant from herbivores, reducing water loss, and reflecting sunlight.
A basophil is a cell which has granules stained by basic stains, especially granular leukocytes.
Achromasia is the absence of normal skin pigmentation, or the inability of a cell or tissue to be stained.
