During metaphase the centrometers attach to what structures?

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.


In which phase do chromosomes align on the spindle equator?

Chromosomes align on the spindle equator during the metaphase. During the metaphase the chromosomes meet on an imaginary line between the two poles.


What phase is when each chromosome is connected to a spindle fiber?

During metaphase each chromosome attaches to spindle fibers. The centriole anchors the spindle fibers and helps in splitting the chromosome.
