What is a sentence with metaphase in it?

At the stage of metaphase, chromosomes line up along the equator of the cell. Homologous chromosomes pair up.


When does metaphase occur?

Metaphase occurs during meiosis and mitosis. These processes are how most cells reproduce to make two new cells. Some use binary fission.


Do homologous chromosomes pair up during metaphase 2 as they do in metaphase 1?

No, homologous chromosomes do not pair up during metaphase 2 as they do in metaphase 1. In metaphase 2, individual chromosomes line up along the metaphase plate.


What is is the difference between metaphase 1 and 2?

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


During what phase of meiosis do replicated homologous chromosomes line up next to each other at the cell's equator-?

It is during the anaphase of meiosis that the replicated homologous chromosomes line up next to each other at the cell's equator.


Bivalents align at metaphase plate?

Metaphase 1


During metaphase II, do homologous chromosomes pair up as in metaphase I?

No, during metaphase II of meiosis, homologous chromosomes do not pair up as they do in metaphase I. Instead, individual chromosomes line up along the metaphase plate.


How does metaphase in meiosis differ from metaphase in mitosis?

In metaphase of meiosis, homologous chromosomes line up in pairs, while in metaphase of mitosis, individual chromosomes line up singly.


Differences between metaphase 1 and metaphase 2?

1. In metaphase 1 spindle formation is completed In metaphase 2 spindle formation take place 2. Bivalent are involved in metaphase 1 Bivalents are not involved in metsphase 2


Which phase is known as the organization phase in mitosis?

Metaphase!


What phase are the chromosomes lined up on the equatorial plate?

The chromosomes are lined up at the equatorial plate during metaphase of mitosis and metaphase II of meiosis. This alignment ensures that each chromosome is properly attached to the spindle fibers before they separate and move to opposite poles.


How many chromosomes are in metaphase?

Metaphase I or Metaphase II? In metaphase I it would have 24. In metaphase II it would have 6.
