phosphate on cell division in root tips. Background knowledge Phosphate ions (macronutrients) are needed large amounts by plants. They are required for root growth. For the root tips cells to divide‚ mitosis has to occur. Phosphate is needed for production of ATP which provides energy for mitosis to occur. DNA replication occurs during interphase of the cell cycle. DNA is made up of nitrogen containing base‚ pentose sugar and phosphate group. The phosphate group forms part of the sugar phosphate

diploid). It is during meiosis I that most of the genetic recombination occurs. Phases: Keep in mind that before meiosis begins at all‚ the DNA undergoes replication‚ just like it did before mitosis started. So‚ when you first see chromosomes in meiosis I‚ they have sister chromatids‚ just like in mitosis. It is just that in meiosis I‚ we will be talking about tetrads becoming visible‚ lining up‚ separating‚ and decondensing (rather than

sperm. The development of mature eggs and sperm from precursor cells. Centrosome- A small region of cytoplasm adjacent to the nucleus that contains the centrioles and serves to organize microtubules. 2. How does the process of mitosis compare with meiosis? In mitosis‚ each of the two new cells (called the daughter cells) resulting from the cell division receives the same number of chromosomes that were present in the precursor cell (called the parent cell). In meiosis‚ the number of chromosomes

You are studying the effects of two chemicals (T and N) towards the cell cycle progression using flow cytometer. Briefly‚ the vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) were treated with T and N as stated

There are two types of nuclear division include mitosis and meiosis. Mitotic cell division is involved in the formation of an adult organism from a fertilized egg‚ asexual reproduction‚ regeneration‚ and maintenance or repair of body parts. Mitosis typically results in new somatic‚ or body cells. Meiosis results in the formation of either gametes in animals or spores in plants. The cells formed have half the chromosome number of the parent cell. Mitosis is best observed in cells that are growing at

Lab #3: Mitosis and Meiosis To investigate the processes of mitosis and meiosis. Cells come from previous existing cells. New cells are formed by cell division‚ which involves karyokinesis and cytokinesis. Karyokinesis is the division of the cell’s nucleus and cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm. Mitosis and meiosis are the two types of nuclear division. Mitosis results in body cells: the formation of an adult organism from a fertilized egg‚ regeneration‚ asexual reproduction‚

October 2014 Cell Division Mitosis Abstract Mitosis and Meiosis: Cells can be divided in unicellular organisms or in multi-cellular organisms. DNA controls the cell division. Bacteria reproduce by a process called binary fission. Bacteria have one chromosome that’s attached to the cell membrane. The chromosome replicates and the two copies separate as the cell grows. Over a period of time this one cell makes two cells. Eukaryotes do the process of mitosis. In mitosis‚ each daughter cell gets about
