During this stage of mitosis, the nucleolus is still visible. However, the nucleus appears grainy due to chromosomal condensation. The following is a diagrammatic representation of an onion root tip cell during prophase:Diagrammatic representation of an onion root tip cell during prophase. Credit: ...
Mitosis: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 ...

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...

An onion root tip is observed and the whole onion root tip has 300 cells in total. Of these 300 cells, 198 are in interphase 45 are in prophase 33 aral metaphase 15 are un anaphase and 9 are in telophase. If a cell undergoes mitosis in 12 hours, then ...
