What else can I help you with?
What structure of a bacterial cell determines which kind of biological stain it will take up?
The cell wall of gram-negative bacteria is a thin layer sandwiched between an outer cell envelope and an inner cell membrane. The gram-positive cell wall is much thicker, has no cell envelope, and contains additional substances that retain the blue stain.
What is the effect of heating the smear flooded with a carbol fuchsin stain?
Heating the smear flooded with carbol fuchsin stain helps in the penetration of the stain into the bacterial cell wall by softening the cell wall and making it more permeable. This process is important for the retention of the stain during the subsequent decolorization step in the staining process.
Why are basic stains attracted to the bacteria itself?
The bacterial cell wall has a negative charge. The basic stain has a positive charge. Since they have opposite charges, the bacterial cell wall and the basic stain are attracted to each other; hence the basic stain dyes the bacteria.
Which is part is a part of a bacterial cell?
The cell wall is a part of a bacterial cell that provides structure and support.
What cell parts are visible in onion root cells?
Those that you can see under the microscope are the cell wall, nucleus, nucleolus, and cytoplasm.
The structure that surrounds the cytoplasm in a bacterial cell is what?
cell wall
What are the 3 parts of a bacterial cell?
The seven parts of the bacterial cell are the Genetic material,the Ribosomes, the cell wall, the cell membrane, the cytoplasm, and the flagella.
Which part of bacteria cell is most involved in gram stain?
The cell wall of a bacterial cell is the most involved in the Gram stain because it determines whether the bacteria will appear purple (Gram-positive) or pink (Gram-negative) after staining. The composition of the cell wall, specifically the presence of peptidoglycan, influences how the stain interacts with the bacteria.
What causes a stain to adhere to bacterial cells?
Stains adhere to bacterial cells due to the physical properties of both the stain and the cell wall components. For example, crystal violet in the Gram stain adheres to the peptidoglycan layer in Gram-positive bacteria due to electrostatic interactions. Once the stain binds to the cell wall, it is retained during the washing steps in the staining process.
Where is the location of bacterial cells in plant and animal cells?
While a bacterial cell does have a cell wall and a cell membrane, it does not contain a nucleus. The bacterial cell's genetic material, which looks like a thick, tangled string, is found in the cytoplasm.
Where is the genectic material in a bacterial cell?
while bacterial cell does have a cell wall and a cell membrane, it does not contain a nucleus. the bacteria cell's genetic material, which looks like a thick, tangled a tring, is found in the cytoplasm
What structure that surrounds the cytoplasm in a bacterial cell?
a cell wall or nueclues not sure
Does a animal cell have a cell wall a nucleus and a cytoplasm?
An animal cell doesn't have a cell wall although it has a nucleus and cytoplasm

Why doesn't the whole cell stain with the cell-wall stain?
The whole cell doesn't stain during a cell wall stain because the dyes that are used are only attracted to the negative cell wall and only sticks it. The inside of the cell shows clear.
