A section of elodea leaf is stained and examined under a microscope. The total number of cells in each stage of the cell cycle is as follows:  Interphase- 150 Prophase- 20 Prometaphase- 11 Metaphase- 6 Anaphase- 5 Telophase- 1 If the complete cell cycle in an elodea leaf is 24 hrs. What is the average duration of metaphase in the cycle. Assume no cells are in G0.
The image shows a section of a root tip of Broad Bean with cells from the region of cell division, just behind the root cap. Five cells have been numbered (1-5). Which statements accurately describe the mechanism by which the cells ensure that chromosomes are passed successfully to the next generation? Select ALL that apply.   A - Cell 2 is undergoing anaphase to separate the duplicated chromosomes to opposite poles of the cell.   B - Cell 1 lacks chromosomes and cannot contribute genetic material to future cells.   C - Cells 4 and 5 have recently divided and are now haploid, containing half of a full set of chromosomes after division.   D - Cells 4 and 5 have recently divided and have a cell plate that formed between them.   E - Cell 3 is providing a mechanism for increasing genetic diversity in the daughter cells.
Referring to the graph, what phases together would account for approximately 25% of the time spent from a cell in the cell cycle? A) M phase and S phase B) S phase and M phase C) G1 phase and M phase D) G2 phase and M phase not graded
