Many biology labs use slides of root tips to demonstrate the stages of mitosis. Why is this a better choice than using a slide of a mature leaf?
explain why there are more cells observed in mitosis in the root tip than in the woody stem.
These cells are part of the root tip (a non-reproductive part of the plant).
Knowing what you do about the phases (you can't see this detail from the picture), which cells are diploid?
Select all that apply.
