Uan 23 This is an image of onion root tip cells under a microscope. Identify a cell undergoing interphase and each stage of mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Circle the cell, and then label it with the correct term. Instructions Nases

To identify and label the stages of mitosis in onion root tip cells, follow these steps: 1. **Identify Interphase**: Look for a cell that has a clearly defined nucleus and chromatin that appears as a diffuse mass. This is the interphase stage, where the cell is not actively dividing. 2. **Identify Prophase**: In prophase, the chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope begins to break down. Look for cells where chromosomes are visible and the nuclear membrane is disintegrating. 3. **Identify Metaphase**: During metaphase, chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plane (metaphase plate). Look for cells where chromosomes are lined up in the center of the cell. 4. **Identify Anaphase**: In anaphase, sister chromatids are pulled apart toward opposite poles of the cell. Look for cells where the chromosomes are moving away from each other. 5. **Identify Telophase**: In telophase, the chromosomes reach the poles, and the nuclear envelope begins to reform around each set of chromosomes. Look for cells where two distinct nuclei are forming. 6. **Labeling**: Once you have identified each stage, circle the cells and label them accordingly with "Interphase," "Prophase," "Metaphase," "Anaphase," and "Telophase." Since I cannot see the image, please follow these guidelines to identify and label the cells in your image. If you have any specific questions about the stages or need further clarification, feel free to ask!
