Best material for the study of mitosis in laboratory is

1. anther
2. root tip
3. leaf tip
4. ovary

Correct answer: root tip

Solution

Root tips contain apical meristem, where cells divide rapidly, making mitotic stages abundant and easy to study. This is why root tip squashes are commonly used in labs for observing mitosis.
