Microtubules and kinetochore fibers move the chromosomes in mitosis and meiosis, though they are not referred to as organelles. Though you could say that the fibers originate from the centrioles, which are a part of the centrosome.

What organelles are found only in animal Cells?
centrioles. during mitosis in animal centrioles are used for division to create spindle fibers to move and connect the chromosomes/chromatids. In plants the spindles are all ready in the cell and do not need to be produced so no centrioles are necessary.
What is the role of microfilaments incell division?
Microfilaments and microtubules that make up the cytoskeleton in the cell move/push the chromosomes and organelles into place for the various phases of cell division. (in metaphase, for example, they are moved to the metaphase plate (the center of the cell)) The organelles don't just randomly think "I think I'll move now." So I guess that would be the main role of microfilaments in cell division. :-)
Name the cell organelles which contain DNA?
The three organelles that contain DNA are the nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplasts. The nucleus contains the largest amount of DNA in the cell.
Chromosomes move along these fibers?
Spindle fibers
What is the organelle the contains the chromosomes in eukaryotic cells?
Chromosomes are the molecules of DNA (inheritable genetic material) in each of your cells. Human cells are eukaryotic meaning that they have membrane bound organelles. The chromosomes in eukaryotic cells are enclosed within a nuclear membrane, collectively known as the nucleus. The nucleus is one of the organelles inside a eukaryotic cell.
Organelles used to move chromosomes are the?
microtubules
What does the microtubule do in a plant cell?
They move vesicles, granules, organelles like mitochondria, and chromosomes
Internal movement in cells is brought by what?
The cytoskeleton acts as a "track" on which cells can move organelles, chromosomes and other things.
Which organelles are chromosomes found?
yes
What two types of organelles provide a pathway for the chromosomes?
it you
What stage during the cell cycle are organelles and chromosomes copied?
i think its telophase
What organelles are found only in animal Cells?
centrioles. during mitosis in animal centrioles are used for division to create spindle fibers to move and connect the chromosomes/chromatids. In plants the spindles are all ready in the cell and do not need to be produced so no centrioles are necessary.
What organelles is involved in animal cell reproduction?
All of them. But especially chromosomes and the nucleus
What is a gel that holds organelles in place?
chromatin Answer is cytosol not chromatin
Which contains chromosomes?
Chromosomes are the molecules of DNA (inheritable genetic material) in each of your cells. Human cells are eukaryotic meaning that they have membrane bound organelles. The chromosomes in eukaryotic cells are enclosed within a nuclear membrane, collectively known as the nucleus. The nucleus is one of the organelles inside a eukaryotic cell.
What is the funtction of the microtubules?
Microtubules are conveyor belts inside the cells. They move vesicles, granules, organelles like mitochondria, and chromosomes via special attachment proteins. They also serve a cytoskeletal role. (from cytochemistry.net)
How do centriols help?
Centrioles are cylindrical organelles found near the nucleus. They help cells during cell division by forming spindle fibers that are used to separate chromosomes.
