Spindle fibers form a protein structure that divides the genetic material in a cell. The spindle is necessary to equally divide the chromosomes in a parental cell into two daughter cells during ...

The centromere of chromosomes plays a crucial role in cell division. Using the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, an ...

Same as in mitosis, except that the spindle fibers from each centriole attach to one chromosome of a matching chromosome pair. In other words, the fibers from one centriole attach to 23 ...

The spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes. The centrioles are now at opposite ends of the cell. As in mitosis prometaphase, fibers from both ends of the cells attach to each one of the four ...

Researchers have determined that a collection of 12,000-year-old tiny stone objects found at a Stone Age site in the Jordan ...
