In the middle of mitotic spindle are the duplicated chromosomes held by kinetochores. These are protein structures are involved in pulling apart the sister chromatids.

A structure called the mitotic can be seen between the centrioles of animal cells when cells are reproducing?

The structure you are referring to is probably the mitotic spindle. The mitotic spindle is made up of microtubules and is responsible for organizing and segregating the chromosomes during cell division. It ensures that each daughter cell receives the correct number of chromosomes.


What structure is most closely associated with the production of the mitotic spindle?

The centrosome is most closely associated with the production of the mitotic spindle. It is responsible for organizing the microtubules that make up the spindle fibers during cell division.


What is the array called when spindle fibers radiate from the centrosomes?

The array is called the mitotic spindle. It is made up of microtubules that radiate from the centrosomes and are crucial for the separation of chromosomes during cell division.


The functions of centrioles include?

Organizing the mitotic spindle in cell division. During metaphase the chromosomes line up in the middle, and in anaphase they start to pull apart towards the edge. Centrioles are responsible for creating/ organizing the spindle that pulls them apart.


Why does the vincristine drug damages the mitotic spindle?

Vincristine disrupts the formation and function of the mitotic spindle by binding to tubulin, a protein that helps in spindle formation. This interferes with the normal process of cell division, leading to mitotic arrest and ultimately cell death.


The framework of microtubules that appears in cell division which eventually moves the chromatids apart is called the?
