Synopsis
The purpose of this report is to observe mitosis and meiosis. There two parts in the procedures where first part is the preparation of the onion root while the second part is the observation of the onion root. The five stages of mitosis and the telophase in plant and animal cells were observed and sketched. The major findings are that we have found anaphase on the prepared slides very clearly while the other phases vaguely at both slides. The major problems are that very little amount of time was allowed for hydrochloric acid to immerse inside the specimen moreover the specimen is probably damaged because a lot of pressure was added to the specimen. It is highly recommended that
