assume you are a microscopist viewing fruit fly cells that are undergoing mitosis. Draw what you would expect to see if you were looking at a cell in the stage of mitosis indicated

Step 1
Mitosis consists of several stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Each stage has distinct characteristics that can be observed under a microscope. Show more…

You are looking cells under the microscope. You spot some cells going through mitosis and some cells going through meiosis. Please show what you would see if you spotted 1 cell in the anaphase phase of mitosis, and 1 cell in metaphase of meiosis I. Both cells have 8 chromosomes. (Please draw or diagram them below)

The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, has a total of eight chromosomes (four pairs) in each of its somatic cells. Somatic cells are all cells of the body except those that will divide to form the gametes (ova or sperm). Assume you are a microscopist viewing fruit fly cells that are undergoing mitosis. Within each of the circles (which represent cell membranes), draw what you would expect to see if you were looking at a cell in the stage of mitosis indicated (2.5 pts). - Prophase - Prometaphase - Metaphase - Anaphase - Telophase - Cytokinesis If you added a drug to your Drosophila cells that interfered with the attachment of the spindle to centromeres, in which phase above would cells be stuck? (2.5 pts)
