Spindles are usually crafted out of wood, and resemble a wagon wheel suspended upon an easel. There is always a pointed piece as well. A quick search on Google images should straighten that out.

there are different types of spindles than you see on google images some are used for starting fires

What phase do spindle fibers appear next to nucleus?

Prophase


What is the relationship between centrosomes and spindle fibers?

Spindle Fibers are formed between centrosomes. Centrosomes migrate to opposite ends of the cell during cell division. The spindle fibers function is to anchor the centrosomes and chromosomes into the poles. The chromosomes then reel them selves in using the spindle fiber.


What structure forms in prophase along which the chromosomes called?

The answer is Spindle Fibers.


Are spindle fibres and microtubules same?

Yes, spindle fibers and microtubules are essentially the same in that spindle fibers are composed of microtubules. Microtubules are a component of the cytoskeleton, made of tubulin protein subunits, and they play various roles in cellular structure and transport. During cell division, specifically in mitosis and meiosis, microtubules organize into spindle fibers that help separate chromosomes. Thus, while all spindle fibers are microtubules, not all microtubules function as spindle fibers.


Are spindle fibers and microtubes the same?

Spindle fibers and microtubules are closely related but not identical. Microtubules are the structural components of the cytoskeleton, made of tubulin protein subunits, and play various roles in cell shape, transport, and division. Spindle fibers, specifically, are a type of microtubule that form during cell division (mitosis and meiosis) to help separate chromosomes. While all spindle fibers are microtubules, not all microtubules function as spindle fibers.


Which type of cell has spindle fibers?

Animal cells have spindle fibers in them.


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 forms spindle fibers?

Spindle fibers are composed of microtubules, which are long, threadlike structures made of a protein called tubulin. These spindle fibers play a key role in cell division by helping to separate chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis.


What is spindle fibers begin to form?

Spindle fibers begin to form during cell division, specifically during the metaphase stage of mitosis. They are made of microtubules and help separate chromosomes by attaching to them and pulling them towards opposite ends of the cell.


Cell structures made of individual microtube fibers that are involved in moving chromosomes during cell division are called?

Spindle fibers. These structures form the mitotic spindle and play a crucial role in separating chromosomes during cell division.


In which steps of mistosis do the fibers appear?

The fibers, known as spindle fibers, appear during prophase of mitosis. They begin to form as the centrosomes move to opposite poles of the cell, and the microtubules extend from the centrosomes. These fibers attach to the chromosomes at their kinetochores during prometaphase, facilitating their alignment and separation in subsequent stages.
