Introduction Monocotyledonous plants have large chromosomes, which are nicely visible in the experiments. The meristematic tissues that are enabled at the tip of the roots provide a good source for the study of the process of mitosis. Onions are monocotyledonous plants possessing large chromosomes, hence their root tip is used for studying. Aim Cell division […]
Introduction The cell cycle in eukaryotes usually comprises two distinct processes, namely, mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis occurs in somatic cells and ensures the division of a parent cell into two daughter cells that carry the same number of chromosomes as were present originally in the parent cell. Hence, the level of ploidy is maintained, or the division […]
