What else can I help you with?
Where are chromatids attached?
Centromeres
Are genes composed of centromeres?
No
Begins with the separation of centromeres?
Anaphase
What releases spindle fibers?
centromeres
When do the centromeres split and form the chromatids?
Centromeres split during cell division in the mitotic phase called anaphase. As the sister chromatids are pulled apart towards opposite poles of the cell, the centromeres divide, forming individual chromatids that will become separate chromosomes in the daughter cells.
What is dicentric chromosomes?
A chromosome that has two centromeres.
What structure holds the individual chromatid?
Centromeres.
During prophase what structures are held together by the centromeres?
The sister chromatids are held together by the centromeres. Each chromosome is made up of two sister chromatids.
What is the stage of mitosis when spindle fibers attach to the centromeres of sister chromatids?
The stage of mitosis when spindle fibers attach to the centromeres of sister chromatids is called metaphase.
Do plant cells have centromeres?
Yes, plant cells have centromeres. Centromeres are specific DNA sequences located on the chromosome where the kinetochore assembles during cell division to help in the separation of chromosomes. These structures are essential for the proper alignment and segregation of chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis.
Do centromeres divide at anaphase you or II?
anaphase 2
Chromosomes centromeres are attached to the kinetochore fibers?
Prophase
