Another source of the misconceptions might be the terminology used during teaching. For instance, the misconceptions determined under the scope of this study, such as “Spindle fibers are formed by centromere (Table 2),” “Chromosome and chromatid are essentially the same thing (Table 2),” and “Centrosome and centrioles are essentially the same thing (Table 3),” clearly indicate that students are confusing terms, such as chromatid - chromosome, centrosome - centrioles, centrosome – centromere, with each other. As a matter of fact, it is known from previous studies that the conflicting terms such as “divide, replicate, copy, share, split” used for identification of cell division processes in terms of genetic information and chromosomes are being confused by the students (Lewis and Wood-Robinson, 2000). Therefore, it is understood that it shall be necessary to pay specific attention to the terminology by the teachers and textbook authors in regard to education on cell division.
