The results which may be seen under the microscope when the correct aseptic technique is not used is that there may be cells of different shapes, sizes, and arrangements and is denoted as option B.

What is Aseptic technique?

This is referred to as a type of medical practices and procedures which helps to protect patients and individuals from dangerous germs such as bacteria, virus etc.

In this scenario, we were told that the loop was not sterilized before picking up the bacterial sample for the smear which means that contamination is most likely to occur during the process.

This then leads to cells of different shapes, sizes, and arrangements being present when observed under the microscope thereby making option B the most correct choice in this context.
