Procedure:You will be given a slide of Allium, which is an onion root tip. Growth occurs when cells divide, so the root tips should have several cells in the process of cell division. Theprepared slidesare placed under a microscope, where the cells undergoing mitosis can be observed at dif...
Mitosis is a form of cell division where the result is two daughter cells that are identical to the original cell. There are four primary phases to mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.Answer and Explanation: Onion root tips are commonly used to study mitosis. They are sites...
