6 I think but I might be wrong
Answer:
The main purpose of Negative staining is to study the morphological shape, size and arrangement of the bacteria cells that is difficult to stain. eg: Spirilla. It can also be used to stain cells that are too delicate to be heat-fixed. It is also used to prepare biological samples for electron microscopy.
Secondly, what are the limitations of simple staining? Disadvantages. It does not give much information rather than the morphological characteristics of bacteria. Through simple staining, we cannot classify a particular type of organism.
Regarding this, what is an example of a negative stain?
In a negative staining technique, an acidic, anionic dye is mixed with a cell sample. The dye changes the color of the background, not the cells, causing the cells to stand out. India ink is the classic example of a negative stain.
Answer:
trend toward a sporophyte-dominated life cycle
the trend toward larger gametophytes
Explanation:
<em>The major trend in the evolution of land plants is the domination of the sporophytic phase in the life cycle and alternation of generation. It also moves towards a larger gametophytes</em>
In lower plants, the gameophyte phase was dominant in the life cycle while in bryophyte, both gametophyte and sporophyte phase are co-dependent.
The sporophyte phase is the diploid phase while the gametophyte phase is the haploid phase.
Also, the gameotyptic stages are quite microscopic (usually in the form of spores) in lower plants while they become bigger in land plants (in the form of ovary and pollen) although with fewer cells.
