    1. The document describes two exercises involving microscopy of plant and animal cells at different stages of mitosis and meiosis. Students are asked to identify and label cells from onion root tip slides and grasshopper testis slides at specific mitotic and meiotic stages. 2. The second activity uses wire models to simulate cell division. Students label chromosomes at metaphase, anaphase and telophase of mitosis. They also model crossing over during prophase I and label chromosomes at metaphase I and anaphase I of meiosis. 3. The exercises assess students' understanding of the physical basis of heredity by having them observe cell division under the microscope and model genetic processes like chromosome seg

    Activity 1
    Result of the slide preparation and viewing of samples is shown below:

    Onion (Allium cepa) root tip stained with acetocarmine viewed under a student microscope.

    Encircle the cell and label the specific stage in mitosis it displays. Identify as many as you can with a
    minimum of four cells each of which should represent a different stage.

    Figure 3. Grasshopper testis with differential staining and viewed under a microscope.

    Encircle the cell and label the specific stage in meiosis it displays. Identify as many as you can with
    a minimum of two cells representing different stages. Make sure to specify whether the stage
    belongs to meiosis I or II. If you identify a cell at prophase I, then specify the substage.

    a. What type of cell (somatic and/or gametic) is observed using the onion root tip?

    b. Between Mitosis and Meiosis, what type do you expect to see in onion root tip? Why?

    c. What type of cell (somatic and/or gametic) is observed using the grasshopper testis?

    d. Between Mitosis and Meiosis, what type do you expect to see in grasshopper testis? Why?

    What events in interphase and in the division stage of the cell cycle are responsible for this? Explain.

    2. Meiosis
    Using the same set of wires, pair up homologous chromosomes. What stage is this?

    Assume crossing over between non-sister chromatids. Use blue wires with a pink segment at the tip and pink
    wires with a blue segment at the tip to indicate crossed over regions. At what stage does this occur? Label the
    chromosomes showing interchanged segments. The labels and chromosome composition must reflect the
    presence of crossed over regions whenever applicable.
