Study Notes
Iodine Solution and Onion Peel
- Iodine solution is used to stain the cells of the onion peel, making its cellular structures visible.
- Without iodine solution, the cellular structures of the onion peel would not be visible.
- Not all cells in the onion peel get evenly colored when iodine solution is applied, implying varying levels of starch presence.
Alternative Staining Solution
- Apart from iodine solution, other solutions can be used to stain the cells of the onion peel.
Nuclear Membrane Function
- The nuclear membrane, a double membrane structure, regulates the movement of molecules in and out of the nucleus.
