    Title- Mitosis Abstract –For this lab there is no experiment to be done only questions to be answered. In this experiment we will categorize and count the cells to compute the mitotic index of the total root area. Introduction – The purpose of this experiment is to answer questions associated with the onion root tip photos that are pictured in the lab. The questions for this lab will be drawn from the discussion and review section at the beginning of the mitosis lab. Once that section has been

    either made of wood or metal and this acts like a brace. This is made to sit in the floor and the box spring is placed on the top of it. One can put a mattress on the top of the bed which is almost the same size of the bed frame. The combination of both the box spring and the mattress makes a complete bed. It is normally seen that the spring and mattress are used together without the support of a frame. In UK the box spring is usually mounted directly over the caster that

    The Biological Importance of Water In Living Organisms Water is the most important molecule in cells‚ the whole organisms and on earth‚ this is due to it’s unique physical and chemical properties. ” A water molecule‚ because of its shape‚ is a polar molecule. That is‚ it has one side that is positively charged and one side that is negatively charged”(1). A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom and the bonds between these atoms are single covalent bonds. Fig 1. The

    A molecule of water consists of one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms joined by covalent bonds. Water as a liquid is vital to existence and plays extremely important roles in many aspects of both plant and animal lives. These aspects include temperature control‚ support‚ chemical reactions‚ transport and protection. Without the ability to control our temperature‚ we as humans would not be able to survive in our natural environment. If our internal body temperature was to rise or fall even a few degrees

    Discuss the Role of Hydrogen Bonding in living Organisms A hydrogen bond is an intermolecular bond and is formed when a charged part of a molecule having polar covalent bonds‚ forms an electrostatic attraction with a molecule of opposite charge‚ generally with fluorine‚ oxygen and nitrogen. Molecules having non polar covalent bonds do not form hydrogen bonds. Hydrogen bonds are classified as weak bonds as they are easily and rapidly formed and broken‚ however the cumulative effects of large

    Meiosis I Prophase I: - nuclear membrane dissolves * centrioles move to poles * spindle fibres forming * DNA has been replicated and forms chromosomes made of 2 identical chromatids * Homologous chromosomes line up to form a bivalent‚ 2 chromosomes or 4 chromatids (TETRAD)‚ this process is called SYNAPSIS * Where chromatids overlap is called a CHIASMATA‚ and it allows for CROSSING OVER of genetic information between chromosomes Metaphase I: - homologous chromosomes

    Adenosine Triphosphate‚ also known as ATP‚ is the molecule responsible for the energy that we‚ and all other organisms‚ need to survive. It is produced primarily in the processes of aerobic and anaerobic respiration by oxidative and substrate phosphorylation. 4 molecules of ATP are produced from 4 ADP and 4 inorganic phosphates in glycolysis in the cytoplasm of every cell‚ by the oxidation of a triose phosphate into two molecules of pyruvate. In anaerobic respiration these are the only 4 ATP

Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Can you distinguish any cells?  Yes‚ you can identify cells that are undergoing development. In prophase‚ the chromosomes make and x shape. In metaphase‚ the chromosomes are moved to the middle of the cell. In anaphase‚ the chromosomes look like they are being pulled apart. And in telophase‚ the cell starts

    Mitosis in a Nutshell • The stages of the cell cycle can be broken down into six stages: o Interphase‚ Prophase‚ Metaphase‚ Anaphase‚ Telophase Interphase • Is the "resting" or non-mitotic portion of the cell cycle. • It is comprised of G1‚ S‚ and G2 stages of the cell cycle. • DNA is replicated during the S phase of Interphase Prophase - the first stage of mitosis. • The chromosomes condense and become visible • The centrioles form and move toward opposite ends of the cell ("the poles")
