USE OF ONION ROOT TIPS FOR MITOTIC DIVISION OBSERVATIONS Introduction The zone of cell division on the onion root tip is a great place to observe mitotic cell divisions. Through the observation and comparison of different regions of the root tip‚ the duration of mitotic stages and mitotic indexes are determined for the various divisions of the root tip. Methods Each group used a compound microscope to analyze the different sections of the onion root tip. The root tip was visually

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

AP Biology: Chapter 13 - Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles Overview * The transmission of traits from one generation to the next is called inheritance‚ or heredity * Along with inherited similarity there is also variation * Genetics is the scientific study of heredity and hereditary variation I. 13.1 Offspring Acquire Genes from Parents By Inheriting Chromosomes A. Inheritance of Genes * Parents endow their offspring with coded information in the form of hereditary units

franciscana are known to live in high salinity lakes that are often basic (Biology 108 Lab Manual 2015). Furthermore‚ A. franciscana feed on photosynthetic phytoplankton which inhabit areas of light availability but are also more susceptible to predation in highly-lit areas (Biology 108 Lab Manual 2015). Also‚ A. franciscana can withstand a broad range of temperature except extreme values may affect survival (Biology 108 Lab Manual 2015). In this experiment‚ the habitat

to each other. Important for mitosis and meiosis. The relationship is that each chromosome consists of chromatin. Once replicated‚ a chromosome consists of two identical chromatids‚ which are attached to a section of the DNA called the centromere. 3. List the phases of mitosis and describe what is happening in each phase. Mitosis‚ results in identical cells. 46 chromosomes. It is important for: maintenance‚ repair‚ growth‚ and regeneration. The phases of mitosis are prophase‚ metaphase‚ anaphase

The purpose of mitosis is to create or produce more cells for a living organism. Mitosis occurs when genetic substance in the nucleus divides or separates in order to create more cells. Cytokinesis normally occurs next and the single cell develops into two separate cells. This same process continues
