• Cell Division Virtual Lab Activity Instructions: The Virtual Cell Division Lab is on the lesson assessment page. On the image, it says “Click Anywhere to Start.” Follow the instructions as you move through the lab. The lab activity will keep count of your data on the right, and you can record this into the data table. Title: Virtual Cell Division Lab Objective(s): How the cell stages and mitosis works. Hypothesis: When in interphase, the cells will be the highest Variables: Independent: Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis Dependent: The number of cells in each stage Constant: The type of cell Data: Record the number of cells you observed in the lab activity. Stages Number of Cells Interphase 34 Prophase 8 Metaphase 3 Anaphase 2 Telophase 2 Cytokinesis 1 Observations: Record any observations about the cells you observed. What does the cell look like for each stage? What is a distinguishing visible feature of each stage of the cell cycle? Stages Description of Cell Interphase It looks normal Prophase Has large chromosomes Metaphase The chromosomes are in the middle Anaphase The chromosomes are separated Telophase The cell starts to separate Cytokinesis Completely separat
