9 III. MITOSIS KEY TERMS Define the following: 1. Chromosome 2. Chromatin 3. Spindle fiber 4. Centromere 5. Sister chromatid 6. Nuclear membrane 9

10 Proper Use of the Light Microscope It s very important to follow instruction on how to carefully use a microscope. Microscopes can easily be broken, especially when it comes to the objective lenses. BASIC MICROSCOPE TECHNIQUE RULES TO FOLLOW 1. When you carry a microscope, always hold it with one hand on the arm and the other under the base, and keep the cord well contained. 2. Always lower the stage and raise the objectives all the way before placing a slide under the objectives. 3. Always begin working with the LOW POWER (shortest) objective first. 4. Observe the slide from the side, not looking through the eye piece, when using the coarse focus to avoid running the objective lens into the slide. 5. Never use the coarse focus adjustment when on the medium or high power objectives. Focus on low power first and then rotate the higher power objective into place. Make final focus adjustments with the fine focus adjustment. 10

11 MITOSIS LAB: MITOSIS IN AN ONION ROOT TIP Introduction Mitosis can be observed in cells that are in a state of growth. In this lab, you will observe cells and identify which stage of cell division the cells are in. To help you do this, let's review what characteristics to look for at the different stages. Also remember, interphase is not technically a part of Mitosis, but it is part of the cell cycle and many of the cells you will be looking at are in interphase Pre-lab Read p in the Science 9 textbook. Identify each stage of mitosis on the chart below and describe what you would expect to see. Stage Distinguishing Characteristic(s) Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase 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. 1. View the root tip under the microscope and search for organized blocks of cells where nuclei are plainly visible. (Most activity will be occurring at the tip of the root). 2. Move the slide around until you find a good spot that shows the cells in various stages of mitosis. 3. Draw the cells in various stages in the appropriate box on the following page. 4. Label the chromosomes and spindle fibers. 11

What is the purpose of mitosis? 2. How many chromosomes did you start with? How many did you have at the end? 3. Is mitosis constantly occurring in your cells? Explain. A B C D E 4.

14 5. Why must the nuclear membrane break down for mitosis to occur? 6. In interphase, the DNA is loosely coiled. Why do you think it is important that the DNA be compact and tightly coiled during mitosis? (Hint: Think of an unraveled spool of thread.) 7. This drawing shows various stages of mitosis in a fast growing onion root tip. Identify the cells (by numbers) which are in the following stages of mitosis: interphase prophase metaphase anaphase telophase 8.
