In this trial you may see 100 cells under high power (do not count cells without nuclei - those are dead cells).
| Stage | Trial #1 | % |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Interphase | 88 | 88 |
| 2. Prophase | 5 | 5 |
| 3. Metaphase | 1 | 1 |
| 4. Anaphase | 3 | 3 |
| 5. Telophase | 3 | 3 |
| Total # | 100 | 100 |
If interphase is 88% of mitosis:
960 min. * 88% = 816 min. (13 hours, 36 min.)
prophase: 960 min. * 5% = 48 min.
metaphase: 960 min. * 1% = 10 min.
anaphase : 960 min. * 3% = 29 min.
telophase: 960 min. * 3% = 29 min.
