Description
This prepared slide presents a finely sectioned locust testicle showing all major stages of meiosis, including both meiotic divisions. The stain enhances visibility of chromosomal structures during prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I, and the second division stages. The locust testis is a classic specimen for observing meiosis due to its high mitotic and meiotic activity.
Features
