Reflection questions need to be answered using complete sentences. Some questions may require a longer explanation in paragraph

form.
1. Based on your data, what can you infer about the length of time spent in each stage of the cell cycle?

2. What stages were the longest and shortest? Give a brief explanation of why these stages may have that time period.

3. What is a distinguishing visible feature of each stage of the cell cycle?

4. What differences can you see when you compare the nucleus of a dividing cell with that of a nondividing cell?

5 .If your observation had not been restricted to the tip of the onion root, how would the results be different?

1) Interphase is the longest phase and most of the cells are present in that very stage !!


2) Interphase is the longest phase and Anaphase is the shortest phase !! Interphase is the longest phase as in this phase the cells prepare themselves for dividing and it takes most of the time for gathering energy for division ; in this phase DNA also replicate !!


3)
Interphase: DNA replicates;

Prophase: Nuclear membrane starts disappearing and Centrioles go on opposite poles !! DNA condense to form Chromosome.

Metaphase: Chromosome attach to spindle fibre and starts to move to equitorial plate.

Anaphase: Centromere divide and half the chromatid goes on either pole

Telophase: Nuclear membrane starts to reassemble; Chrmosome goes to normal uncoiled state ; Other organelles starts appearing

Cytokinesis: Cell furrow forms and cell divides into two half.


4) In dividing cell nucleus membrane is absent while in non dividing cell the membrane is intact


5) Tip of the onion root is meristamatic cell which divides but if it is permanent cell ; there would be no division !!

1. An advantage of light microscopes compared to electron microscopes is that light microscopes A)allow you to view living cells
Mariana [72]

Answer:

1. The correct answer would be  A) allow you to view living cells, while electron microscopes do not.  

There are many advantages of light microscope over electron microscope such as:

  • It is easy to use as compared to the electron microscope.
  • It enables us to view both alive as well as dead specimen whereas electron microscope can be used to view dead specimen only.
  • Light microscopes are much cheaper and have much lower maintenance cost as compared to the electron microscope.

2. The correct answer would be C) scanning electron microscope

Scanning electron microscope or SEM is a type of electron microscope which is used to observe surface topography and composition of the specimen. It can achieve resolution of up to 1 nanometer.

3. The correct answer would be 400x

The total magnification of the microscope can be calculated by multiplying the powers of the objective lens and that of the eye lens.

Thus, the magnification of the specimen would be 40*10 = 400x.

Water Cycle 1. How is water stored on Earth during the water cycle? 2. Water moves into the atmosphere through ____________ and
Naily [24]
Water Cycle:


1. It is stored in the ground.

2. Evaporation, transportation, precipitation

3. Runoff comes straight from precipitation. Infiltration is from the ground while run off never went in the ground.

4. It will usually end up in the same place, the ocean

5. Water levels rise, temperatures rise, CO2 in atmosphere increases


Carbon Cycle:

1. Carbon is important because it is one of the basic building blocks of life.

2. Trees, animals, grass, decomposition, combustion, fossil fuels

3. Carbon enters as photosynthesis.

4. Carbon enters water to the soil decomposition. Aquatic plants have plenty of water to work with, so their main challenge is getting enough sunlight and air.

6. By breathing in the oxygen from plants.

7. Two ways carbon return from animals into water is through cellular respiration and decomposition.

8. Combustion is when we dig up the fossil fuel and burn it, then what is left goes into the air starting the cycle again.

9. Deforestation reduces the capacity of forests to be carbon sinks.


Nitrogen Cycle:

1. Nitrogen is important because it helps us grow crops, and it produces grass for animal.

2. It comes from lightning and is named nitrogen fixation.

3. Ammonification and then transitions into nitrification and then to assimilation.


Phosphorus Cycle:

1. It forms part of life sustaining molecules like DNA and RNA.

2. Phosphorus is never found in the atmosphere.
