Suppose , you have supplied with onion root to observe steps in cell division . if you want to count the number of chromosomes, which step will you observe
Answers
A karyotype is a technique by which the chromosomes under the microscope can be studied. In a karyotype, the chromosomes are arranged and numbered, based on size from largest to smallest, centromere position. During Metaphase stage of mitosis cell division, the chromosomes shorten and become more tightly coiled making their shapes more distinct and become more visible under the light microscope.
If we were to observe cell division and we are supplied with an onion root then we would want to observe the process known as mitosis.
All organisms are made of cells and for these organisms to grow and mature new cells must replace the old ones.
Mitosis is the process where new cells are replaced with old cells.
Mitosis is the process by which an eukaryotic cell nucleus gets split into two parts.
