Explain Why you could not use a grass leaf in this investigation?

A oak leaf would make a poor wet mount slide as does not allow the light to pass through making the slide difficult to read. An onion leaf makes a better wet mount as light easily passes through the cells making the slide very clear and easy to read.


Why onion is suitable for DNA extraction?

Onions have cells with a relatively high DNA content, making them a suitable source for DNA extraction. Additionally, onions contain enzymes that help break down cell walls and release DNA, making extraction more efficient. Onion DNA is also relatively stable and less prone to degradation, making it easier to work with in the lab.


What happens when you put an onion in salt water?

When you put an onion in salt water, the salt creates a hypertonic environment, causing water to move out of the onion cells through osmosis. This process results in the onion becoming limp and releasing some of its natural juices into the water. Additionally, the salt can enhance the flavor of the onion while also drawing out some of its moisture. Over time, this can lead to a brined effect, making the onion more flavorful.


Where are the nucleoli of an onion cell found?

The nucleoli of an onion cell are found within the nucleus. The nucleus is a membrane-bound organelle that houses the cell's genetic material, including the nucleoli where ribosomal RNA synthesis takes place.


What is the difference between a bacterial cell and a onion peel cell?

Bacteria cells are prokaryote, that is they have a lose gathering of genetic material and few organelles, ribosomes being the most of that. Cell walls. Onion cells are plant cells that are eukaryote. They have membrane bound organelles and a membrane bound nucleus for the genetic material. Like bacteria, plants have a cell wall.

What part of onion peel is used to prepare a temporary mount?

The best part to use is inside the bulb structure. Using the finger nail or fine forceps one should attempt to obtain a 'one cell thick' epithelial sample (i.e. should resemble a piece of peeling human skin after sunburn). This can then be stained with iodine after mounting on a microscope slide in order to facilitate the viewing of internal cell structures
