I am at least 70% sure that they attach to the centriole which binds the chromosome together.
Centrioles do not have much to do with chromosomes. Centrioles are found just floating in the cytoplasm, while chromosomes are in the nucleus. Chromatins, strands the chromosomes are make up of, are connected by the centromere. Therefore the spindle fibers probably attach to chromosomes in the nucleus, though I, as well, am not entirely sure.

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 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 phase of mitosis if chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers?
Metaphase is when chromosomes attatch to spindle fibers in the phase of mitosis.
When do spindle fibers attach to chromosomes?
Spindle fibers attach to chromosomes during mitosis. Specifically, they do so in the metaphase portion of mitosis, in preparation for the splitting of the cell.

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.
What phase are chromosomes visible and attach to spindle fibers?
Visible in prophase and attach to spindle fibers in meta phase
When do spindle fibers attach to chromosomes?
Spindle fibers attach to chromosomes during mitosis. Specifically, they do so in the metaphase portion of mitosis, in preparation for the splitting of the cell.
What joins chromosomes arms together and is the place where spindle fibers attach to each chromosome?
centromere joins chromosomes arms , the cromatids , together and is the place where spindle fibers attach to each chromosomes
What is main event of metaphase?
chromosomes attach to spindle fibers
When during mitosis do chromosomes attach to spindle fibers?
During mitosis a double-stranded chromosome attaches to a spindle fiber centromere.
During metaphase the centrometers attach to what structures?
In animal cells, during metaphase stage of the cell cycle, the centrioles attach to spindle fibers. These spindle fibers are also attached to the chromosomes which are now aligned at the metaphase plate.
What stage when spindle fibers attach to chromosomes?
Metaphase is the stage when spindle fibers attach to chromosomes. Metaphase is the second stage of cell division, between prophase and anaphase.
What forms during prophase to Later attach move chromosomes?
Spindle fibers
