(b) Centrifugation/ultracentrifugation
(c) Cell cultures/model organisms
(d) Sequencing of a genome/bioinformatics

Please give me an example on what to research!
3.12) Draw, label and explain what is happening to the chromosomes, cytoskeleton and membranes at each stage of mitosis and interphase. To demonstrate deep thinking you should represent the mechanisms of each step and why the steps have to be in the order then are in because of the mechanisms.
A design justification (a short paragraph)
A description of how the work demonstrates your deep thinking (a short paragraph)
A description of how you are using constructive feedback for continuous improvement, and giving constructive feedback to others (a short paragraph)
The creation itself (or a representation of it)

(a)Discuss or explain the consequences for a cell if the chromatin could not be remodeled.
(b) Does the action of the telemorase enzyme contradict the central dogma of molecular biology? why or why not?

- MIosis Method: Observations of onion root tip squash. Scan the microscope under the 10x objective. Look for the region that has large nuclei relative to the size of the cell; among these cells will be found cells displaying stages of mitosis. Switch to the 40X objective to make closer observations. Since prophase and prometaphase are difficult to distinguish, classify all these cells as prophase. Record your observations in the table provided. Examples are shown in the figure below. Interphase Early Prophase Mid Prophase 10 Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Exercises: 1. Find and draw a cell showing each stage of mitosis. Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase , 2. What is a distinguishing visible feature of each stage of mitosis?
