During metaphase, chromosomes are being directed to the cell's equatorial plane, and during anaphase, chromosomes are being directed to opposite poles of the cell.

What is the area where chromosomes are normally found in a cell that ends with a s?

The area where chromosomes are normally found in a cell that ends with an "s" is the nucleus.


What are chromosome pairs attached to?

Pairs of chromosomes are not attached. Before mitosis chromosomes replicate themselves, these twin identical chromosomes are attached at the centromere. before cell division the cell has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) but has 2 copies of each individual chromosome called chromatids,(making a total of 92 chromosones, 46 for each daughter cell) which are joined at the centromere giving the characteristic X shape. Pairs are not joined, chromatids are.


In what ways are homologous chromosomes similar?

They are similar in size shape , position of centromere and genes .Homologous chromosomes are similar in the pattern they are stained, their lengths, and most importantly they have genes of the for a certain characteristics in the same area.


The tendency of molecules to move toward areas of lower concentration is called .?

I believe you are talking about diffusion - when particles move from an area of high concentation to an area of lower concentration.


What is the area in the center of the chromosome which holds the two sides together?

The area in the center of a chromosome that holds the two sides together is called the centromere. The centromere is responsible for ensuring that the duplicated chromosomes are divided evenly during cell division. Its function is crucial for the accurate segregation of genetic material.

What is the area in which homologous chromosomes are joined?

If you mean the area of the cell, then they line up along the Metaphase (or equatorial) plate before being pulled apart. Or perhaps you mean the centromere - the bit that connects two homologous pairs?

What does air do in a high pressure area?

In a high pressure area, air molecules are densely packed together, causing the air to sink and compress. This leads to stable weather conditions with clear skies and minimal cloud formation. High pressure systems are often associated with fair weather.


How are genes relatd to DNA?

a gene is an area on a pair of chromosomes which code for a specific characteristic of DNA. For example if you have the gene for ginger hair on your chromosomes in your DNA you will be born with ginger hair


Which organelles are chromosomes found?

Chromosomes are found inside the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, a membrane-bound organelle that houses genetic material. In prokaryotic cells, chromosomes are found in the nucleoid region, a non-membrane-bound area of the cytoplasm.
