GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The most basic reason that cells are stained is to enhance visualization of the cell or certain cellular components under a microscope. Cells may also be stained to highlight metabolic processes or to differentiate between live and dead cells in a sample.

Detailed explanation-2: -Staining is done to visualise the specimen clearly under the microscope. Without staining the specimen under the microscope will look transparent or will not be visible clearly. Hence, staining is done to make the components of cell clearly visible.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants and animals specimens are stained with dyes before observing them through a microscope because cells appear transparent under the microscope and to make the internal organelles and other structures clearly visible, different stains or dyes are used for different parts of the cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Methylene Blue It helps make cells show up against their background, where their shape can help you determine what they are (their morphology). It’s attraction to acid makes it particularly useful for viewing animal cells since these cell nuclei contain deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).

Detailed explanation-5: -The main reason you stain a specimen before putting it under the microscope is to get a better look at it, but staining does much more than simply highlight the outlines of cells. Some stains can penetrate cell walls and highlight cell components, and this can help scientists visualize metabolic processes.
