Spindle fibers.
centromere joins chromosomes arms , the cromatids , together and is the place where spindle fibers attach to each chromosomes
The sister chromatids (arms) are held together by centromeres. Centromeres are the site of attachment for the spindle fibers.
The Centrosome. It forms Centrioles which form spindle fibers. Some of the spindle fibers attach to the Kinetochore located on the Centromere of chromosomes. The spindle fibers work in conjunction with motor proteins to facilitate disjunction.
Spindle fibres are tiny tube-like structures made of protein to which chromosomes attach during cell division.
Fibers in the spindle that attach to the centromere of the chromosomes are called what?
Visible in prophase and attach to spindle fibers in meta phase
In animal cells, during metaphase stage of the cell cycle, the centrioles attach to spindle fibers. These spindle fibers are also attached to the chromosomes which are now aligned at the metaphase plate.
The centromeres of chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers during metaphase. The spindle fibers bring about the separation of sister chromosomes to the opposite poles. When spindle fibers do not attach to the centromeres, the doubling of chromosomes leads to polyploidy in the cell.
Metaphase is when chromosomes attatch to spindle fibers in the phase of mitosis.
Metaphase
Spindle fibers.
That would be during metaphase in mitosis and the chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers because each half of the chromosomes need to migrate to the opposite poles. The spindle fibers are temporary but aid in the movement of the 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.
chromosomes attach to spindle fibers
Metaphase is the stage when spindle fibers attach to chromosomes. Metaphase is the second stage of cell division, between prophase and anaphase.
During mitosis a double-stranded chromosome attaches to a spindle fiber centromere.
