Nuclear envelope. It breaks down and it's microtubules form the fibers

What structure forms in prophase along which the chromosomes called?
The answer is Spindle Fibers.
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.
What is the name of the organelles from the asters and the spindle fibers?
The spindle fibres are in the nucleus and they are envolved in mitosis.
How is the alignment of chromosomes on the equatorial plate of the cell maintained?
tension between opposite spindle fibers pulls them there!
Cell structures made of individual microtube fibers that are involved in moving chromosomes during cell division are called?
spindle fibers
What is happening when chromosomes attach to spindle fibers?
That would be during metaphase in mitosis and the chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers because each half of the chromosomes need to migrate to the opposite poles. The spindle fibers are temporary but aid in the movement of the chromosomes.
To which part of the centromere do mitotic spindle fibers attach during prometaphase?
The centromeres of chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers during metaphase. The spindle fibers bring about the separation of sister chromosomes to the opposite poles. When spindle fibers do not attach to the centromeres, the doubling of chromosomes leads to polyploidy in the cell.
What is the relationship between centrosomes and spindle fibers?
Spindle Fibers are formed between centrosomes. Centrosomes migrate to opposite ends of the cell during cell division. The spindle fibers function is to anchor the centrosomes and chromosomes into the poles. The chromosomes then reel them selves in using the spindle fiber.
Fibers in the spindle that attach to the centromere of the chromosomes?
Fibers in the spindle that attach to the centromere of the chromosomes are called what?
What structure forms in prophase along which the chromosomes called?
The answer is Spindle Fibers.
What phase in Meiosis do spindle fibers move homologous chromosomes to opposite sides?
Anaphase 1
What is the phase of mitosis if chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers?
Metaphase is when chromosomes attatch to spindle fibers in the phase of mitosis.
The phase of mitosis in which microtubules connect the centromere of each chromosome to the poles of the pindle?
The name for the network of microtubules along which the chromosomes move during cell division is called the spindle fibers. These spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes and pull them in half.
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.
What is the name of the organelles from the asters and the spindle fibers?
The spindle fibres are in the nucleus and they are envolved in mitosis.
Chromosomes move along these fibers?
Spindle fibers
When does the spindle fiber formed?
Spindle fibers are formed during the metaphase stage of mitosis (cell division) when the chromosomes are tightly condensed and aligned at the center of the cell. Spindle fibers pull the chromosomes in opposite directions toward the opposite poles thus allowing the daughter cells to obtain a copy of the genome
