the light micrograph shows dividing cells near the tip of an onion root. identify and encircle a cell in each of the following stages: phrophase , prometaphase, metaphase ,anaphase and telophase. describe the major events occuring at each stage.
Count 100 cells and tally them. Remember the phases you learned in Bio 31 and Anatomy? Draw a pie chart graph showing the phases of Allium root tip.
Label each of the phases with the % for each phase:
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase
interphase
provide direction of the phase progression--direction in which to read the graph so the phases of mitosis are in proper order.
Draw and label a picture of what a cell looks like during prophase.
Draw and label a picture of what a cell looks like during metaphase.
Draw and label a picture of what a cell looks like during anaphase.
Draw and label a picture of what a cell looks like during telophase.
Draw a picture of what a cell looks like during cytokinesis.
Draw and label a picture of prophase I & II.
Draw and label a picture of metaphase I & II.
