Mitosis Flashcards - AQA Biology
How can the stages of mitosis be observed under a microscope?
The stages of mitosis can be observed under a light microscope in onion and garlic root tips. A small slice of the root tip is placed on a microscope slide and broken down with a needle. A stain is added to make the chromosomes visible, and the cover slip is pushed down to squash the tip to achieve a single layer of cells.
