    Mitosis is easily observed in cells that are growing at a rapid pace such as whitefish blastula or onion root tips, which was used in this lab experiment. The root tips contain and area called the apical meristem that has the highest percentage of cells undergoing mitosis. The whitefish blastula is formed directly after the egg is fertilized. This is a period of rapid growth and numerous cellular divisions where mitosis can be observed. In mitosis the cell is in interphase, and have a distinct nucleus and nucleoli where the thin threads of chromatin thicken into distinct chromosomes and the nuclear evvelope breaks open releasing them into the cytoplasm. The firs signs of the spindle begin to appear, next the cell begins metaphase, where the spindle attaches to the Centromere of each chromosome and moves them to the same level in the middle of the cell. This level position is called the metaphase plate. Anaphase begins when the chromatids are separated and pulled to opposite poles, then the final stage is telophase. The nuclear envelope is reformed and the chromosomes gradually uncoil. Cytokinesis may occur, in which, a cleavage furrow will form and the two daughter cells will separate. Meiosis is more complex and involves two nuclear divisions. The…

    Eukaryotic cells go through Interphase and Mitosis. Interphase is further subdivided into 3 stages, G1 (first gap), S (synthesis of DNA), and G2 (second gap). In all 3 sub phases cell growth happens and organelles like mitochondria are replicated. DNA, however, is only synthesized during the S phase. DNA replication is started by Helicase which unwinds the double helix at replication forks. Topoisomerase is used to loosen the tension at the ends of the bubble, in order to correct for over winding ahead of the replication forks. Primase then synthesizes an RNA primer which the DNA polymerase III will use to lay down bases, synthesizing a new strand. DNA polymerase I will then remove the primer and DNA Ligase will join ends of DNA synthesized from different replication forks. Because DNA can only synthesize from 5'->3', there is a leading strand and lagging strand which creates Okazaki fragments that are later joined together by DNA Ligase. After DNA is replicated proofreading enzymes will check and repair any mistakes that occurred during replication. After S phase is the G2 phase where the cell grows even larger. G2 is followed by mitosis, which is subdivided into 5 parts: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. In prophase, chromatin condenses and the nucleoli disappears. What we know as chromosomes, which consist of two identical sister chromatids joined together at centromers, begin to appear. Mitotic spindle is formed and the centromers start moving to opposite poles, propelled by the lengthening microtubules that they shoot out. In metaphase, the longest stage of mitosis, the chromosomes line up on the metaphase plate and the centromeres have already migrated to opposite poles.…

    The Eukaryotic Cell Cycle

    There is two stages in M-phase; the first stage is called mitosis. Mitosis is the nuclear division of the cell, separating the two copies of the genome and forming daughter nuclei. There are four stages in mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Multiple changes occur in prophase including the coiling of the chromatin into chromosomes, the disappearance of the nuclear envelope and nucleoli, the migration of the centrosomes toward opposite poles and the construction of spindle apparatus, which are composed of protein fibers called microtubules. The next stage is called metaphase, where the chromosomes line up at the middle of the cell because the microtubules push and pull them there. The third stage, anaphase, consists of sister chromatids separating and being pulled toward opposite poles. The last phase of mitosis is telophase, which is when the chromosomes uncoil resulting in chromatin. During telophase two new nuclear enveloped appear and spindle apparatus breaks down (Mrs. Weiland, 11/19/15).…
