What is differences do you see in the stained and unstained onion cells?

Stains were developed for different applications precisely because they make objects or features of objects easier to see and differentiate. The stains make things easier to see because they were made for that purpose.

∙ 13y agoThe 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,

∙ 14y agoMost of the organelles in the cytoplasm can be seen while stained, but not unstained. The big exception is the cell wall. I did this lab like two weeks ago.

∙ 9y agoStained cells are always easier to see than unstained cells. However, when looking at an onion cell that is unstained, the cell wall can be seen.
Wiki User
∙ 14y agoThe stained onion cells have anthocyanin in their cytoplasm, hence they look pink or red depending up on the amount of coloring material present in the cells.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoDepends on how you are viewing the onion. If you are using a 100x magnification microscope, all you can usually see is the cell wall, and sometimes the nucleus.

What are the differences in onion cells cheek cells and amoeba cells?
Onion cells are plant cells, cheek cells are human cells and amoebas split? (i'm smart as well as beautiful, I also managed to keep my airhead image by putting a ? at the end, *giggles flirtily*)
What differences are between the onion root tip and whitefish embryo in size of the cells?
.......... Did Ben ask this??????
Onion cells and elodea cells structure differences?
An ELODEA cell is a PLANT cell. A HUMAN EPIDERMAIL cell is an ANIMAL cell. if you know that plant cells and animal cells have different organelles, then you should be good to go.
How do cells of the onion specimen appear under the microscope?
The cells of the onion appeared to be crooked.
Why are onion cells approximately the same shape?
Onion cells are arranged in a closely packaged way. This is so that they layers of the onion can be thick and tough.
Which parts of the onion cells stood out the most after they were stained?
Only you know that because you did the experiment not us.
What cell structures can be seen in a stain onion cell?

Why do you use the onion for cell sample and not the leaf?
An onion is easy to peel to 1 layer of cells, and with a light microscope you cant see the individual cells in a leaf. Also the cell obtained from the bulb of onion is colorless, hence it can be easly stained with different dyes to study the cell organells under the microscope.
What is onion peel generally stained with?
methylene blue
What are the differences in cell organelles between onion cells potato cells cheek cells and lettuce cells?
The difference between potato cells and onion cells, check cells, and lettuce cells is the presence of starch in the potato cells chloroplast organelles. The difference between cheek cells and the rest is easier the cheek cells do not have chloroplasts at all.
What are the structures that can be observed in stained onion cells?
we were able to see the different organells of the cells including cell wall ,plasma membarane,nucleous,cytoplasm mitochondria ,vacoules etc since we viewd from an electo microscope
Where are onion cells found?
All organisms are made of cells. An onion is and organism, hence all parts of an onion are made of cells.
Why are the onion cells shaped the way they are?
Onion cells have large vacuoles in their interior that store water molecules. Cells are arranged in a closely packed way in the onion tissue and hence appear as a brick wall when stained and viewed under the microscope.
Are chloroplasts visible in onion and cheek cells?
No chloroplasts in cheek and onion cells
Onion cells and elodea cells structure differences?
An ELODEA cell is a PLANT cell. A HUMAN EPIDERMAIL cell is an ANIMAL cell. if you know that plant cells and animal cells have different organelles, then you should be good to go.
