What else can I help you with?
Chromatid pairs are fully visible the nucleolus and the nucleus membrane disintegrate and spindle fibers begin to form?
This describes the prophase stage of mitosis, where the chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, the nucleolus disappears, and the nuclear membrane breaks down. Spindle fibers also start to form and attach to the chromosomes at their kinetochores to prepare for their separation.
What disintegrates in prophase?
During prophase of mitosis, the nuclear envelope begins to disintegrate, allowing the chromosomes, which have already condensed and become visible, to separate and move toward the cell's equatorial plane. Additionally, the nucleolus disappears, and the mitotic spindle starts to form as microtubules extend from the centrosomes. These changes prepare the cell for the subsequent stages of mitosis.
Why do spindle fibers loop themselves around the kinetochore of a chromatid?
Spindle fibers loop around the kinetochore of a chromatid to ensure proper attachment and alignment during cell division. This arrangement allows the fibers to exert force on the chromatids, facilitating their movement toward opposite poles of the cell during anaphase. The looping mechanism also provides stability and enhances the accuracy of chromosome segregation, reducing the risk of errors that could lead to aneuploidy.
What has occurred at the end of Prophase?
At the end of prophase all of the chromosomes(chromatids joined at the centromere) are now floating around the cells and the spindle fibers are formed. Then you go into Metaphase where the chromosomes line up in the center of the call and the centromeres attach to the spindle fibers. Hope that helped!:)
How are chromatids separated?
Chromatids are separated during cell division by a structure called the mitotic spindle, which attaches to the centromere of each sister chromatid. The spindle fibers then pull the sister chromatids apart towards opposite poles of the cell, ensuring that each daughter cell receives the correct number of chromosomes.
Chromatid pairs are fully visible the nucleolus and the nucleus membrane disintegrate and spindle fibers begin to form?
This describes the prophase stage of mitosis, where the chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, the nucleolus disappears, and the nuclear membrane breaks down. Spindle fibers also start to form and attach to the chromosomes at their kinetochores to prepare for their separation.
In what stage does the nucleolus and nuclear membrane disappear and spindle fibers and centrioles appear?
The Microtubules of the bipolar spindle assemble and attach sister chromatids to opposite spindle pole, This happens at the Transition into Metaphase.
What two structures disappear during prophase?
During prophase, the nuclear membrane and the nucleolus dissolve and disappear.
What attaches the spindle fiber to the chromatid?
the kinetochore
Name four things that happen during telophase?
During telophase, the nuclear membrane reforms around each set of separated chromosomes, the nucleoli reappear in each new nucleus, chromosomes begin to uncoil and become less condensed, and the spindle fibers disappear.
The chromatid is attached to a spindle fiber by what?
one word Centromere
A chromatid is attached to a spindle fiber by the what?
by the pulling apart movement required to make two new daughter cells. spindle fibers attach to the opposite ends of the poles during metophase which creates the chromosomes to split. this process of splitting is also known as binary fission
Besides the nucleus what else is broken down during prophase?
During prophase, the nuclear membrane breaks down, allowing the condensed chromosomes to be released into the cytoplasm. Additionally, the centrioles move to opposite poles of the cell and the spindle fibers begin to form.
Name 2 things that occur during telophase 1?
The nuclear membrane and nucleolus (these had disappeared during prophase). They had originally disappeared during prophase because the chromatin condensed into chromatids and then coiled into chromosomes and needed to seperate. They reappear during telophase because the chromatid uncoils again to form chromatin. This means that the cell no longer needs to seperate so it can reform the membrane and nucleolus.
How do you perform mitosis?
Mitosis is composed of 5 steps: 1)prophase 2) metaphase 3) anaphase 4) telophase 5) cytokinesis Beginning from prophase, the nuclear envelope and nucleolus begin to dissolve and the spindle fibers start to form. In metaphase, the chromosomes form a line down the middle of the chromosome and the fully formed spindle fibers attach to the kinetochore, which are in turn attached to the centromere which is holding the sister chromatids ,which make up the chromosome, together. During anaphase, the sister chromatids are pulled apart and the centromere ruptures. Each chromatid is pulled to a pole on the opposite side of the cell. Telophase is simply prophase in reverse. The nucleolus is reformed, one around each chromatid, as well as the nuclear envelope and the spindle fibers begin to dissolve. Lastly, cytokinesis is the physical separation of the cell into two daughter cells,
What is kinetechore?
A kinetochore is a protein structure that forms on a chromatid during cell division. It plays a crucial role in cell division by helping to attach the chromatid to the mitotic spindle, ensuring proper segregation of chromosomes into daughter cells.
What cell parts begin to reappear during telophase?
The chromosomes go to opposite poles, the nuclear envelope reappears and cleavage furrow deepens
