There are several alternatives to sandwich cookies that you can use to demonstrate mitosis in a lab. Here are a few suggestions:
1. Onion root tip: Collect onion root tips and observe them under a microscope. The actively dividing cells in the root tips can clearly show various stages of mitosis.
2. Plant or animal cell models: Use models or diagrams representing plant or animal cells to illustrate the different stages of mitosis. You can create these models using various materials such as clay, play dough, or even origami.
3. Slides or images: Utilize prepared microscope slides or digital images of cells undergoing mitosis. These can be obtained from scientific supply companies, educational websites, or biology textbooks.
4. Microscopic images or videos: Access online resources that provide microscopic images or videos of mitosis. There are numerous educational websites and scientific databases that offer visual representations of mitosis at different magnification levels.
5. Whitefish blastula: Obtain samples of whitefish embryo blastula from a local fish market or scientific supply company. The highly proliferative cells in the blastula can be easily observed under a microscope to study mitosis.
Remember to follow proper safety procedures and obtain necessary permissions when utilizing biological specimens in a lab setting.
