What protein structure moves chromosomes?

During mitosis and meiosis, kinetochores move chromosomes across the spindle fibers. The kinetochores serve as vehicles and the fibers serve as roads.

Why do individual chromosomes more difficult to see during interphase than during mitosis?

During mitosis the fibers of each individual chromosome are drawn together, forming the tightly packed chromosomes that you can see through a microscope.

Describe the structure of eukaryotic chromosomes?

Eukaryotic chromosomes consist of a DNA-protein complex that is organized in a compact manner which permits the large amount of DNA to be stored in the nucleus of the cell. The Chromatin and Nucleosome are two of the most important parts.


How are chromosome and chromatids related?

Chromatin is intertwinted mass of fine thread-like structure made of DNA and protein. During cell division (mitosis and meiosis), chromatin condenses to form thicker rod-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of two similar halves called chromatids. Formation of chromosomes having two similar halves or chromatids is meant for equitable distribution of chromatin which is hereditary material.
