During metaphase, the spindles, or microtubules, all start to move to opposite ends. There, they grab the chromatids and pull them back to their opposite sides.

What is spindle fibre?
The stuff that comes from the centrioles of a cell that pull apart the chromosomes during mitosis.
What are the jobs of protein fibers during mitosis-?
During mitosis, protein fibers attach to the chromosomes on opposite ends of the cell, then help to pull them apart so that the cell can divide into daughter cells with copies of all the chromosomes.
What would be the role of the centrioles?
During Mitosis, during metaphase, the centrioles grow spindle fibers which attach to the chromosomes located currently on the centrosome. They then pull one half of the chromosome to their side of the cell, this process is called anaphase. They then disappear.
What is the name of the fibers that line the chromosomes up at the equator of a cell during mitosis?
Spindle fibers from the centrioles attach to the chromosomes and pull in opposite directions at the metaphesal plate.
Do the chromosomes separate once in both mitosis and meiosis?
No. In mitosis the chromosomes separate once. In meiosis, in anaphase I, homologous chromosomes separate, but are still attached as sister chromatids. In anaphase II, the sister chromatids separate. So there are two chromosome separations in meiosis.

What does a microtuble do?
Microtubules are very important to Mitosis. They help to pull the chromosomes to the opposite ends of the cell during anaphase.

When during the cell cycle are chromotomes visible?
During Interphase.......NO During Mitosis........YES * assuming you mean visible through a microscope

Why does mitosis have to have microtubules in order to occur?
Mitosis require microtubules because they bind to the chromosomes and pull them to each pole of the cell. The cell can then divide with the respective chromosomes on separate halves of the cell.
During mitosis chromosomes are moved and separated through the use of spindles composed of?
microtubules. These microtubules are formed from the centrosomes and attach to the chromosomes at their kinetochores. As the microtubules shorten and lengthen, they pull the chromosomes apart, ensuring that each daughter cell receives the correct number of chromosomes.
What is a cytoskeletal that pulls chromosomes apart?
CentriolesCentrioles are log-like structures that appear during cell division in animal cells and pull the chromosomes apart.
