1. MITOSIS LAB

2. VIEW TIP OF ONION ROOT UNDER BOTH HIGH AND LOW POWER

3. FIND A CELL IN INTERPHASE PROPHASE METAPHASE ANAPHASE TELOPHASE/CYTOKINESIS

4. FOCUS ON HIGH POWER SKETCH IN LAB BOOK A CELL IN EACH STAGE LABEL STAGE & MAGNIFICATION

5. COUNT ON LOW POWER AND WITH A PARTNER, COUNT EACH CELL AND WHAT PHASE IT IS IN. ONE PARTNER CALLS OUT PHASES WHILE THE OTHER TALLIES. IF UNSURE, USE BEST GUESS RECORD IN A DATA TABLE

7. CALCULATE - ANALYSIS PERCENTAGE OF CELLS IN EACH STAGE ONION ROOT TIP CELLS DIVIDE APPROXIMATELY ONCE EVERY 24 HOURS. CALCULATE THE AMOUNT OF TIME, IN MINUTES, A CELL SPENDS IN EACH STAGE OF MITOSIS. SHOW CALCULATIONS
