Plant cells are typically not dyed for several reasons. First, many dyes can disrupt cellular processes or cause toxicity, affecting the cell's viability. Additionally, plant cells have a rigid cell wall and chloroplasts that may alter how dyes are absorbed, making it challenging to achieve consistent and meaningful staining. Instead, researchers often use specific staining techniques for particular cellular components or rely on alternative methods like fluorescence microscopy to visualize plant cells without harmful dyes.
