Metaphase is important because it involves chromosomes transporting genetic material to the center of a cell before becoming a couple of daughter cells. Mitosis or meiosis would be impossible without this intermediary phase.
the spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes to order them in a line
so that the chromosomes can pull them apart into two cells
In the Prophase. Nuclear envelope and nucleolus disappears.
Metaphase is the third phase of mitosis, when the chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell.
During metaphase.A trick is to remember: "M for metaphase, M for the middle of the cell". This is to remind you that at metaphase the centromeres of the chromosomes are aligned in the plane of the equator.
Paired homologous chromosomes are found at the spindle equator during metaphase. During metaphase the chromosomes line up on the plate and attach to the fully formed spindle.

Metaphase 1 The chromosomes line up on the equatorial (metaphase) plate. Metaphase 2 Kinetochores of the paired chromatids.

It is during the anaphase of meiosis that the replicated homologous chromosomes line up next to each other at the cell's equator.
Mitosis is the process of cell division which involves 5 different phases. These phases include prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Metaphase is the phase in which the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
Metaphase is one of the phases in the cellcycle
