Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The technique in which cellular components are coloured for better observation is called:
A
Dyeing
B
Colouring
C
Pigmenting
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell staining is the technique of colouring different parts of cells. It is used to visualise cells and cellular components better under a microscope. By using different stains, one can preferentially stain specific cell components, such as a nucleus, cell wall, or the entire cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cell staining is a technique that can be used to better visualize cells and cell components under a microscope. By using different stains, one can preferentially stain certain cell components, such as a nucleus or a cell wall, or the entire cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -This process of coloring a cell is called staining and the compounds that are used to color cells are termed stains or dye. Staining is usually done to enhance the contrast of a cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Some stains can penetrate cell walls and highlight cell components, and this can help scientists visualize metabolic processes. Stains also help distinguish between live cells and dead ones. Moreover, staining allows scientists count the number of cells of a particular type within a certain biomass.

Detailed explanation-5: -Microscope cell staining is a technique used to enable better visualization of cells and cell parts under the microscope. By using different stains, a nucleus or a cell wall are easier to view. Most stains can be used on non-living (fixed) cells, while only some types of stain can be used on living cells.
