Chromosomes line up along in the equator not in homologous pairs?
Metaphase. What's the difference? Whether it's IN homologous or NOT, they're both Metaphase..... Stupid worksheet. I hate you group 3. :(
What is mataphase?
Metaphase is the stage of mitosis where the chromosomes line up along the equatorial plane of the cell. This alignment is crucial for ensuring that each daughter cell will receive an equal and identical set of chromosomes during cell division.
What phase is DNA duplicated?
The S phase in the interphase. Chromosomes are copied in the interphase part of the cell cycleS phase would be the answer. It is during Interphase (G1, S, G2) that they are copied. SO dependant on your answers it's either interphase or S.
What happens to the chromatin during the prophase?
During prophase the chromosomes are identical chromatids connected at the center by a centromere, forming a X-shaped object. The distinguishing feature of prophase is the setup of the mitotic spindle, which is used to maneuver the chromosomes about the cell. The spindle is formed by excess parts from the dismantled cytoskeleton. The spindle is initially setup outside the nucleus. The cell's centioles are duplicated to form two pairs of centrioles. Each pair becomes the part of the mitotic center which forms the focus for an array of microtubules, called the aster. The two asters lie side by side close the the nuclear envelope. Near the end of prophase the asters pull apart and the spindle is formed. The mitotic spindle forms. The cell lines up and starts mataphase 1
