Chapter 12, Problem 3IQ
The following diagrams will depict the five stages of mitosis in an animal cell after you draw in the missing chromosomes and kinetochore microtubules in stages c, d, and e. For simplicity, this cell has only four chromosomes, as you can see in stages b and f. Identify the stages and label the indicated structures.

List in each blank the description of events associated with each stage of mitosis in addition to the preparatory stage Interphase. Some events and structures occur only in plant cells and some in animal cells. Mark these events in the list with an asterisk.
The phases of mitosis are shown in Figure 6.4. Mitosis is the type of nuclear division that occurs when an
animal or plant grows larger and when injury heals. Two daughter cells result because there is only one round of
division, and it keeps the chromosome number constant (same as the parent cell). The prophase cell in Figure 6.4
has the same number of chromosomes as the telophase nuclei in Figure 6.4. Explain the different appearance of
the chromosomes.
Review the events associated with each stage of mitosis in addition to the preparatory stage, interphase. List these events in table. Some events and structures occur only in plant cells and some occur only in animal cells. Mark these events in your list with an asterisk. This list can serve as an excellent study guide, so be as complete as possible.

- For below problem, consider a diploid cell that contains three pairs of chromosomes designated AA, BB, and CC. Each pair contains a maternal and a paternal member (e.g., Am and Ap). Using these designations, demonstrate your understanding of mitosis and meiosis by drawing chromatid combinations as requested. Be sure to indicate when chromatids are paired as a result of replication and/or synapsis. You may wish to use a large piece of brown manila wrapping paper or a cut-up paper grocery bag for this project and to work in partnership with another student. We recommend cooperative learning as an efficacious way to develop the skills you will need for solving the problems presented throughout this text.
