Description

This animal cell division mitosis model is used for biological study, and consists of a set of 10 models depicting stages in mitotic cell division for detailed examination: resting cell, early prophase, prophase, late prophase, metaphase, anaphase, late anaphase, telophase, and daughter cells. The model is colored for presenting an enhanced microscopic view of the cell structure, and is mounted on a base for display. The model is made of durable polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic-coated fiberglass. PVC plastic is corrosion resistant, lightweight, and has high strength, resisting reactions with acids, gasoline, alcohol, and hydrocarbons. Fiberglass contains many extremely fine glass fibers in a plastic composite, and is commonly used for its strength, nonreactivity, and to insulate against sound, heat, and electricity. The model measures approximately 50.0 x 45.0 x 4.0 centimeters (L x H x W). (L is length, the horizontal distance from left to right; H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from front to back.)
