At prometaphase of mitosis

Best Answer

During prometaphase, the nuclear envelope fragments and the spindle microtubules are able to reach the chromosomes.

Each of the two chromatids of each chromosome, at this point, has a kinetochore.

The microtubules attach to the kinetochores, forming "kinetochore microtubules" which basically jerk the chromosomes back and forth.

Prometaphase.

What comes before anaphase?

The stages of Mitosis are are interphase, prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.


What is the proper order of the stages in Mitosis?

What does the correct chromosomal condition at prometaphase of mitosis look like?

The chromosomes during the prometaphase of mitotis in biology means that the chromosomes are gathered in the middle in a line with the spindles beginning to attach.


How many steps are there in mistosis?

Mitosis has 6 stages. interphase, prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase


What cell is not in a phase of mitosis?

The phases of Mitosis are Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase (IPMAT). Cytokiensis is a separate thing altogether from Mitosis. So anything other than IPMAT is "not a phase in mitosis".


What is the stage between metaphase and anaphase in mitosis?

There is no stage between metaphase and anaphase. Mitosis has four stages, first its prophase then metaphase then anaphase then telophase.


Do meisosis and mitosis have metaphase?

Mitosis for sure has metaphase. Scientists are guessing that meiosis has it too, but they combine it and make it "prometaphase," because prophase and metaphase happens so fast in meiosis.


When do spindle fibers attach to chromosomes?

Spindle fibers attach to chromosomes during mitosis. Specifically, they do so in the metaphase portion of mitosis, in preparation for the splitting of the cell.
