Biology March 5‚ 2015 Introduction In the Mitosis lab an onion root was observed under a microscope to observe whether or not cell division takes place. Also‚ whether cells replicate in order for it to reproduce. By observing the onion root under the microscope it allows many layers to be looked at through each cell division. The goal of Mitosis is the replication of cells to produce multiple like cells. The steps involved in Mitosis are what is known as the PMAT stages‚ which are the following:

AP BIOLOGY- Mitosis and Meiosis Cell Division Lab Part 1-MITOSIS summary: In this experiment first the stages of an onion cell undergoing mitosis are going to be observed and every stage is going to be detected and drawn on paper. A brief description to what is going on should be attached to the pictures. This is important to understand the basics of cell division which is necessary growth‚repair

AP LAB # 3: MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS Website to go for quizzes and activities: Print out the quizzes for mitosis and meiosis http://www.phschool.com/science/biology_place/labbench/ OVERVIEW Exercise 3A is a study of mitosis. You will simulate the stages of mitosis by using chromosome models.You will use prepared slides of onion root tips to study plant mitosis and to calculate the relative duration of the phases of mitosis in the meristem of root tissue. Prepared slides of the whitefish blastula

in relation to three onion cells and the impact on the cells structure. A small square of a red onion skin (membrane) was observed under a microscope at high power (X40) magnification. The observation showed a large number of onion cells. The structure of one onion cell had a general rectangular shape with a developed cell wall‚ which gives the rectangular shape to the cell and a cell membrane just beneath it. The observation under the microscope of a cell of an onion skin soaked for 15 minutes

Question: How does mitosis produce new cells‚ and how is mitosis the same and different? Materials: - Compound microscope - Alliums root slide - Whitefish embryo slide - Power supply Procedure: Refer to page 48 and 49 in the textbook. Results: See attached sheet for drawings of my results. Discussion: Analyze and interpret question 1 and 2 on page 49. 1. The cells in the root tip region of the alliums differ quite a bit from the cells that are found deeper in the root

Cell Biology (CP8121) Experiment 2: Observing Mitosis and Meiosis on cell specimens (Formal report) Name: Wong Chung An Class: DMLS/FT/1B/02 Admin number: P1138687 Summary This experiment aims to observe mitosis and meiosis on cell specimens. It involves the modelling of the stages of meiosis and also the staining procedures to identify mitosis in onion root tip. There are two parts to the procedure of the experiment whereby the first is staining and observing mitosis in onion root tips and the

is if lectin can induce mitosis in the cell of an onion root tip. The hypothesis is that‚ if the lectin does not induce mitosis‚ then there should not be a great change in the number of cells that undergo mitosis. The alternate is‚ if the lectin does induce mitosis‚ then there should be an increase in of cells in mitosis. The control group of the experiment had root tip treated with water‚ and the experimental had root tip treated with lectin. Upon the chi-square analysis‚ it can be concluded that
