Which tool is best for a student to use to observe mitosis in an onion root?
A microscope is the best tool for a student to use to observe mitosis in an onion root tip.
What can be observed under the microscope when examining an onion root tip slide?
When examining an onion root tip slide under a microscope, you can observe the different stages of cell division, such as interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. This allows you to study the process of mitosis and observe the structure and arrangement of the cells in the root tip.
Where else in an onion plant does mitosis occur?
in the shell
Why are onion root tips used to look at mitosis instead of other parts of the onion?
because of you!
Why do you not observe chloroplast in the onion epdermis?
Onion are under the soil.So they do not get sunlight for photosynthesis
Bella did the onion root mitosis lab before on what?
with edward
Why you need to heat onion root tips during mitosis?
Heating onion root tips during mitosis allows for the cells to be fixed and stained, making it easier to observe and study the different stages of cell division under a microscope. The heat helps to stop any ongoing cellular processes that may impact the accuracy of the observations.
What plant tissues provide the greatest opportunity to observe cells under mitosis?
The meristematic tissues, specifically the root tip and shoot apical meristem, provide the greatest opportunity to observe cells undergoing mitosis. These regions are actively dividing and are commonly used in studying cell division processes.
What are the most phases that you can observe in root tip?
mitosis
How do scientist examine the tip of an onion root?
Scientists can examine the tip of an onion root by preparing a thin section with a microtome and staining it to make the cells visible under a microscope. They can then observe the different cell types in the root tip, such as root cap cells, meristematic cells, and elongating cells. This allows them to study the process of cell division and growth in the root tissue.
Why would you look at the cells in the roots of the onion when looking for cells in mitosis?
anaphase
What type of cell division is exhibited by the cell in the onion root tip?
Mitosis.
