Best Answer

During metaphase each chromosome attaches to spindle fibers. The centriole anchors the spindle fibers and helps in splitting the chromosome.

What will these spindle fiber eventually be used for?

There are six phases of mitosis (a way which allows cell to reproduce itself so that organisms can grow). In this process, DNA is coiled into chromosomes. In the second phase, the spindle fibers attach themselves to centromere - centromere is a part of chromosome linking two sister chromatids (2 chromsatids make one chromosome). In the fourth phase, these spindle fibers shorten themselves and the sister chromatids are physically separated by the action. This way the two diploid daughter cells produced in mitosis have 46 chromosomes each.


What phase do centromeres break?

Centromere splitting is something that happens to the Chromosomes during the M Phase (Mitosis) of cell division. During Anaphase (a phase in the M Phase), the centrioles that have sent out spindle fibers and are at opposite poles just tug at the centromere of the Chromosome, causing the centromere to split. Anaphase is basically centromere splitting, where the spindle fibers from the centrioles split the chromosome in half at the centromere.

Phase during mitosis when chromosomes are pulled apart by spindle fiber and chromatids move to opposite ends?

What phase of meiosis does each replicated chromosome pair with its corresponding homologous chromosome?

Prophase 1 is the phase of meiosis ll when the homologous pairs combine. It is also when centrioles seperate, spindle fibers are formed, the nuclear envelope disappears, and the chromosomes become visible.


During what phase does the sister chromatids line up in the midplane of the cell?

During Mitosis, the spindle pulls apart the sister chromatids of the chromosome in the Anaphase stage.


What phase are chromosomes visible and attach to spindle fibers?

Visible in prophase and attach to spindle fibers in meta phase


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.
