    The document describes the shapes and structures of various cells and organs observed under a microscope. It notes that staining cheek cells enhances visualization and allows for cell classification by shape. The shapes described include fusiform, spherical, amorphous, oval, and thread-like for structures like muscle cells, blood cells, ovaries, testes, and sperm cells from frogs and humans. The tail of sperm cells is described as a flagellum that allows for motility.

    Staining cheek cells enhance the visualization of cells and cell parts under a light
    microscope. They give images more contrast and allow cells to be classified according to
    their shape. By using a variety of different stains, you can selectively stain different areas
    of the cells such as cell walls, nuclei, or the entire cell.

    The frog’s red blood cells under a microscope have a large decorated core in the center. This
    occupies a large enough space in comparison with respiratory pigments. In this regard, the
    amount of oxygen that they are able to tolerate is significantly reduced. The frog’s ovary on the
    other hand, is spherical shape as they shed the mature eggs in coelomic cavity. The eggs enter
    oviducal funnel to reach oviduct. Eggs enter cloaca through oviducts of both sides.

    The tail, also known as flagellum, is a long structure which main function is to allow
    sperm motility by means of a slithering, snake-like movement. This allows the sperm cell
    to travel to the female reproductive tract.
