<span>Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a network of interconnected sacs (cisternae). Depending on the presence of ribosomes on the surface of their membrane, ER can be rough or smooth. Smooth ER does not have ribosomes on the surface of its membrane. Smooth ER plays a part in lipid production and metabolism, as well as in the production of steroid hormones. It is also involved in detoxification of organic chemicals, products of natural metabolism, etc.</span>

Lesechka [4]

Answer: Methylene blue can be used to stain DNA of a cell because it (forms ionic bonds with DNA).

Explanation:

To examine the components of a cell usually under a microscope, a stain or dye is being used to provide a clear and defined view of the area under study.

The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of a cell which contains the hereditary information of the cell is located in the nucleus.

Methylene blue is a type of stain used by biologists which helps them view microscopic life in brilliant color. It is a cationic stain (positively charged blue dye); and binds to negatively charged parts of the cells, such as nucleus (DNA) and RNA in the cytoplasm (with lower affinity).

When DNA of a cell comes in contact with methylene blue on a slide, their opposite charges attract, causing methylene blue's "rings" to slide in between the "rungs" of the DNA "ladder." As a result, a rich blue stain that identifies the location of the cell nucleus can be observed. This produces a photosensitive reaction which can then be viewed under the microscope.

Therefore is can be used to stain the DNA of cell because it forms ionic bonds with DNA.

How much oxygen is consumed by fish species
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

This is not generally realized but is vital when designing aeration systems for growing on warm water species. Most research indicates that trout consume around 200 – 250 mg O2/kg/hour. I regularly record carp consuming three times as much at 700- 800 mg/kg/hour under optimal growing conditions.
