Centrioles
Centrioles are log-like structures that appear during cell division in animal cells and pull the chromosomes apart.
microtubules. These make up the spindle fibres that pull chromosomes apart during mitosis and meiosis
The structure is a spindle fibre.
The cytoskeletal component is the microtubule.
the answer is at their centromeres.
Centrioles and spindle fibres.
Spindle Fibres
metaphase
The cytoskeletal filaments are microtubules.
Organizing the mitotic spindle in cell division. During metaphase the chromosomes line up in the middle, and in anaphase they start to pull apart towards the edge. Centrioles are responsible for creating/ organizing the spindle that pulls them apart.
Before they are pulled apart they are called sister chromatids. Once they are pulled apart they are called chromosomes.
Anaphase is the stage of mitosis when chromosomes split apart.
The cytoskeletal structure responsible for pulling chromosomes apart during cell division is the spindle apparatus. It consists of microtubules that attach to the chromosomes and exert forces to separate them into two daughter cells. The spindle apparatus is essential for ensuring the accurate distribution of genetic material during cell division.

Anaphase
metaphase
They pull the sister chromatids (the duplicate chromosomes of the cell) apart to opposite poles of the cell allowing new cells to form. Basically they rip the chromosomes in half so there is an equal copy of ever chromosome.
Tension stretches or pulls apart the crust.
During cell division, the centrioles on either side of the cell produce a fiber-like spindle that attaches to the chromosomes and pulls them apart.
