Cells and Genetics— Mitosis and Meiosis, continued
Normal Mitosis Kit
In a single laboratory period students will have the opportunity to prepare their own slides of squashed root tips. The staining technique used will allow students to scan their slides for cells in various stages of mitosis. The specially treated root tips have been fixed at maximum mitotic activity to ensure a successful search. An opportunity to study mitosis while gaining experience in micro-technique and staining. Recommended for classes at all levels.
Materials supplied for 30 students working individually. Microscopes are required.
“Constructing” Mitosis the 5E Way—
Student Laboratory Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
Asexual reproduction, cell division, and fission are all words or descrip- tions generally used to refer to the same process—mitosis. Assist your students to more fully comprehend this important cellular process by Engaging them in a seemingly unrelated, but thought-provoking scenario. Next, allow them to Explore their understanding of the scenario and its relationship to a drawing they make using chalk, a large sheet of paper and pipe cleaners. As students continue through the Explanation and Elaboration parts of the activity, a written, verbal and visual understanding of the mitotic process and important events that occur within each phase are demonstrated as students draw simple cell diagrams. In the final Evaluation, onion root tip cells that are undergo- ing Interphase or a specific phase of mitosis, are found and identified using a microscope.
Complete for 30 students working in pairs. Microscopes are recom- mended but not provided.
Mitosis and Meiosis Study Set
Comprehensive and informative cell division study set features six micro- scope slides, three colorful overhead transparencies, and detailed student worksheets. Allium root tips slide shows the lateral view of all mitosis stages. Whitefish embryo slide details animal mitosis. Mouse testis slide presents all stages of spermatogenesis. Giant chromosomes slide contains chromosomes from the salivary gland of Chironomus. Lillium microspore slide shows prophase and meta- or anaphase of the first division of meio- sis. All materials come packaged in a convenient storage box.
The Cell Cycle—Simulations of Chromosome Behaviors— Super Value Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
Having trouble explaining the difference between mitosis and meiosis? Stop working so hard. Let your students model the two processes with these hands-on chromosome simulation materials. The unique chromosome models with magnetic centromeres and pop bead arms allow students to easily visualize and compare the two processes. The chromosome models are built by students and can be physically manipulated through the various stages of the cell cycle on their tabletop. With this kit, chromosomes and their behaviors will be easily understood by the students. Use the models later for a practical lab quiz. Includes 60 centrioles, 60 magnetic centro- meres, 900 pop beads and complete background and instructions.
Super Value Kit is complete for 15 student groups. All materials are reusable.
