    This document outlines a practical experiment to observe and draw the stages of mitosis using prepared onion root tip slides. Mitosis is described as the process where a cell's nucleus splits into two identical nuclei with the same number of chromosomes, ensuring new cells have the correct genetic material. It is an important part of the cell cycle that allows for tissue growth, repair, and transmission of genetic information between generations.

    PRACTICAL #: 10
    TITLE: MITOSIS
    AIM: To make drawings from prepared slides of onion root tip to show the stages of mitosis

    APPARATUS/MATERIALS:
    METHOD:
    1.
    BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

    The cell cycle is a process that happens in a cell that ends up dividing it into two new cells. There are two
    main parts of the cell cycle: interphase and mitosis.

    Mitosis is a special part of the cell cycle where a cell's nucleus splits into two identical nuclei with the
    same number of chromosomes. This process is very important because it makes sure that the new cells
    have the right amount of genetic material.

    While mitosis is only one part of the cell cycle, the whole cycle is important for a cell's growth and DNA
    replication.

    Mitosis is super important for living things because it helps with tissue growth and repair. It also makes
    sure that the new cells have the same genetic information as the original cell. Without mitosis, living
    things wouldn't be able to grow or repair their tissues, and they wouldn't be able to pass on their genetic
    information to the next generation.
