Mitosis is the division of cells which create two identical sister cells. Mitosis consists of six different phases including interphase, prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Metaphase is the part of the cell divison cycle where the chromosomes align in the middle of the cell

What does a nucleus do in a mitosis of a single cell?
During the first stage of mitosis, prophase, the nucleus and nucleolus disappear. Mitosis then proceeds into metaphase and anaphase. Then during telophase, the nuclei reappear in the two cells and finally the cells split apart from each other by a process known as cytokinesis.
What is the purpose of spindle fibers during mitosis?
Spindle fibers move chromosomes to the center of the cell during metaphase of cell division and break the chromosomes apart during Anaphase.
What is the structure at the center of the chromosomes where sister chromatids are attached?
When sister chromatids are joined together they are held together by proteins, which make up the centromere. The two chromatids together make up a chromosome.
When during the cell cycle are chromotomes visible?
During Interphase.......NO During Mitosis........YES * assuming you mean visible through a microscope
What phase of mitosis do sister chromatids line up in the center of the cell?
This phase is called the metaphase. Remember' M' for middle and 'M' for metaphase. In the next phase (anaphase) the chromosomes move away from each other: remember 'A' for away. Telophase is the last or 'terminal' phase: remember 'T' for terminal. Prophase occurs prior to (ie before) the other phases: remember 'P' for prior. Interphase is in between cells divisions: remember 'I' for in between. Clear answer is metaphase.
During which phase of mitosis do the sister chromatids line up in the center of the cell?
Chromosomes are composed of two chromatids during the prophase and metaphase of mitosis. The chromosomes of formed in prophase and line up in metaphase.
What process by which a cell divides into 2 daughter cells?
In telophase in mitosis and both telophase I & II in Meiosis
How do mutations occur during mitosis?
reasorment of chromosomes can occur during meosis by crossing over
What significant event happens in metaphase of mitosis?
The chromosome pairs are lined up in the center of the cell, parts of the cytoskeleton have formed the mitotic spindle and are preparing to pull the pairs apart.
Which step of mitosis are the chromosomes lined up in the center of the cell?
Metaphase is the stage where the chromosomes are align in the center of the cell.
Do the chromosomes line up in the center of the cell?
They line up during metaphase of mitosis and meiosis
Description of metaphase?
the chromosomes will move in the equatorial plane
What is a cell structure that joins two sister chromatids of a chromosomes?
The cell structure that joins two sister chromatids into one single chromosome is called the centromere. This is at the center of the sister chromatids.
What is the name of the structure that connects the sister chromatids?
The cell structure that joins two sister chromatids into one single chromosome is called the centromere. This is at the center of the sister chromatids.
