Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
With Wright stain, lysosomes are visualized as azurophilic granules.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The genetically active portion of the nuclear chromatin, composed of DNA plus supporting proteins, appears diffuse and uncondensed and stains pale blue with Wright stain. It is also called euchromatin. Chromatin, which is condensed and stains darkly, is also called heterochromatin; it is the genetically inactive portion of the nucleus.
