(14)Before you arrive for the Mitosis lab, please
1. Read the lab thoroughly, noting all safety guidelines.
2. Answer these preparatory questions:
What safety procedures should you be sure to follow during this lab period?

In what types of cells does mitosis occur?__________________________________
If mitosis stopped in your body, what effects would you see most rapidly? Which
tissues would be affected later? Which cells would never be directly affected?

In a typical cell cycle, approximately what percent of time is spent in
mitosis?______________________________________________________________
What would cause a cell type to spend more time in mitosis?
______________________________________________________________________
Draw a rod-shaped eukaryotic chromosome in the beginning of the
G1 subphase of interphase.
Could you see individual genes in this view?
Why or why not?
________________________________________________________
Draw the same chromosome after the G2 subphase of interphase.
What has happened to the amount of genetic material?
_______________________________________________________
Why are whitefish blastulas and onion root tips used for observing mitosis?
______________________________________________________________________
As you are instructed to do in your lab manual, fill in Table 14.1 with the events of
the phases of mitosis. As you are doing so, sketch an animal cell with 4
chromosomes moving through each phase of mitosis. Be sure to label each
phase, and also the nuclear envelope, centrosomes, centrioles, and spindles
whenever they are present.
Are the new daughter cells different in any way from the original cell? Explain
your answer.___________________________________________________________
Would you expect to see all of the phases of mitosis on one single slide?_______
Is it possible for a cell to look like it is past one of the stages of mitosis but not
quite at the next stage? Explain your answer.
______________________________________________________________________
Instead of forming a cleavage furrow, what do plant cells do during cytokinesis?
______________________________________________________________________
Which organelle packages the macromolecules that form the plant structure in
the previous question?
______________________________________________________________________
In what other way does plant cell mitosis differ from animal cell mitosis?
______________________________________________________________________
Would you predict that prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase would
take equal amounts of time to complete? Explain your answer using events that
occur in the phases.

Why is p53 called a TSG? What happens if p53 mutates so it does not function?
