- 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?
