Mitotic spindle fibers help with chromosome movement in animal cells. These fibers act as pathways for the chromosomes to travel across when moving around the cell.

What thin hollow cylinders that assist chromosome movement during cell division?

Spindle fibers are thin hollow cylinders that assist in chromosome movement during cell division. These structures are made of microtubules and help separate the chromosomes, ensuring that each daughter cell receives the correct number of chromosomes.


What does Cilia Do in the animal cell?

The cilia does a number of things in the animal cell. The main function is to help the cells in terms of movement.


Is a flagual part of an animal cell?

"Flagual" is not a word. Perhaps you're thinking of flagella, which is a part of some animal cells.


Which organelle provides animal cells with support from inside of the cell?

The cytoskeleton provides animal cells with internal support. It is a network of protein fibers that help maintain cell shape, enable cell movement, and provide support for organelles.


Where are cilia and flagella found?

Cilia are found on the surface of many animal cells, where they help with movement and sensory functions. Flagella are typically found on certain types of cells, such as sperm cells, and they help with cell movement.


Do animal cells have a cytoskeleton?

Yes, animal cells have a cytoskeleton, which is a network of protein fibers that provide structural support, help with cell movement, and assist in cell division. The cytoskeleton is made up of three main components: microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules.


Is the flagella in the animal cell or the plant cell?

Generally neither. Plant cells to not have flagella and, apart from sperm, neither do animal cells. Flaglla are more characteristic of bacteria and protists.


What is the thickness of an animal cell wall is it rigid or flexible?

Animal cells don't have cell walls. Only plant cells do - they are rigid to help keep the shape of the cell. Both plant and animal cells have cell membranes which are flexible and are meant to regulate what goes into the cell.


What structures are spindle fivers attached to that help pull the paired chromosomes apart?

Spindle fibers attach to structures called kinetochores, which are located at the centromere of each chromosome. Kinetochores play a key role in chromosome movement by interacting with the spindle fibers and helping to pull the paired chromosomes apart during cell division.


Cillia a plant or animal cell?

Cilia are short hair-like structures found on the surface of some animal cells. They are involved in cell movement and in moving fluids around cells. Plants do not have cilia, but they do have structures like flagella and motile cilia in some algae species.


Do plant cells have a spindle?

No. Almost all plant and animal cells are Eukaryotic, and there are a wide variety of shapes, from the long and slender sperm to a rigid cuboid epithelial cell.


What Cellular junctions that link intermediate filaments between adjacent animal cells are called?

Anchoring junctions link intermediate filaments to adjacent animal cells, attaching the cells but still allowing movement or stretching.
