The cell is most likely an algae cell. Algae cells typically have a rigid cell wall and contain chlorophyll, which gives them a green color. While plant cells also have a rigid cell wall, the presence of green pigmentation suggests a photosynthetic organism like algae. Bacterial cells may have a cell wall but do not typically appear green unless they contain specific pigments.

If you observed a cell with a plasma membrane, a cell wall, and ribosomes but no other organelles, you could conclude that it is likely a prokaryotic cell, such as a bacterium. Prokaryotic cells are characterized by their lack of membrane-bound organelles and a defined nucleus. The presence of ribosomes indicates that the cell is capable of protein synthesis, while the cell wall provides structural support.
A positively charged stain (dye) would likely bind to the negatively charged components of the average bacterium, such as the cell membrane or nucleic acids. This electrostatic attraction enhances the visibility of the bacteria under a microscope, allowing for easier identification and observation. The binding may also depend on the specific characteristics of the bacterium's surface and the nature of the dye used.
The organism observed under the microscope is likely a type of fungi or an animal, as both are multicellular and lack chloroplasts. Fungi obtain nutrients through absorption from their surroundings, while animals ingest organic material. The absence of chloroplasts indicates that this organism does not perform photosynthesis, differentiating it from plants and some protists. Further analysis would be needed to determine its specific classification.
This bacterium is likely a denitrifying bacterium. Denitrifying bacteria are able to use nitrate as a terminal electron acceptor in the absence of oxygen, converting it to nitrogen gas through denitrification.

The arrow would likely point to the cylinder lens, which is the objective lens of the microscope. This lens is responsible for magnifying the specimen being observed.
An example of an organism that can only be seen with a microscope is a single-celled organism like bacteria or protists. These organisms are too small to be visible to the naked eye but can be observed under a microscope due to their size.

Robert Hooke found the first cell in a sliced open cork.Under a microscope.
The first cell observed using a light microscope was most likely a cork cell, discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665. This marked the beginning of cell theory and the understanding of cells as the basic building blocks of life.
I'm unable to draw a diagram as a text-based assistant. However, you can easily find well-labelled diagrams of an animal cell observed under an electron microscope by searching online. There are many resources available that provide detailed images and descriptions of the different organelles within an animal cell.

The field of a microscope refers to the area of the specimen or sample that is visible through the eyepiece or camera. It represents the extent of the specimen that can be observed at one time under the microscope's magnification. A larger field of view allows more of the sample to be seen at once, while a smaller field offers higher magnification but limits the visible area.
Structures that can usually be observed in cells in the low power field of a compound light microscope include the cell membrane, nucleus, and possibly some larger organelles like mitochondria or chloroplasts. Other structures like ribosomes or small vesicles may not be visible at this magnification level.
