  2. Mitosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitosis

    The mitosis process in the cells of eukaryotic organisms follows a similar pattern, but with variations in three main details. "Closed" and "open" mitosis can be distinguished on the basis of nuclear envelope remaining intact or breaking down. An intermediate form with partial degradation of the nuclear envelope is called "semiopen" mitosis.

  3. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    Cell division in prokaryotes (binary fission) and eukaryotes (mitosis and meiosis). The thick lines are chromosomes, and the thin blue lines are fibers pulling on the chromosomes and pushing the ends of the cell apart. The cell cycle in eukaryotes: I = Interphase, M = Mitosis, G 0 = Gap 0, G 1 = Gap 1, G 2 = Gap 2, S = Synthesis, G 3 = Gap 3.

  4. Onion epidermal cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onion_epidermal_cell

    The clear epidermal cells exist in a single layer and do not contain chloroplasts, because the onion fruiting body (bulb) is used for storing energy, not photosynthesis. [3] Each plant cell has a cell wall, cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, and a large vacuole. The nucleus is present at the periphery of the cytoplasm.

  5. Primary growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_growth

    The tip of the root is protected by a root cap that is continuously sloughed off and replaced because it gets damaged as it pushes through the soil. Cellular division via mitosis takes place at the very tip of the root cap. The newly created cells then begin a stretching process of cellular elongation, thereby adding length to the root.

  6. Cytokinesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokinesis

    Cytokinesis (/ ˌ s aɪ t oʊ k ɪ ˈ n iː s ɪ s /) is the part of the cell division process and part of mitosis during which the cytoplasm of a single eukaryotic cell divides into two daughter cells. Cytoplasmic division begins during or after the late stages of nuclear division in mitosis and meiosis.

  8. Meristem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meristem

    As a result, the plant will have one clearly defined main trunk. For example, in trees, the tip of the main trunk bears the dominant shoot meristem. Therefore, the tip of the trunk grows rapidly and is not shadowed by branches. If the dominant meristem is cut off, one or more branch tips will assume dominance.

  9. Mitotic index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitotic_index

    Some examples include human lymph nodes and bone marrow. Also, skin, hair, and the cells lining the intestines (epithelial cells) have high rates of mitosis. That's because those tissues constantly need to be repaired (by the cells being replaced) or growing. Plants have higher rates of mitosis at the cells of the shoot and root tips.
