उत्तर

Centrosome Centromere
It is an organelle of the animal cell. It is a non-stainable part of the chromosome at which two chromatids join.
It contains two centrioles, which move towards the opposite poles and form spindle fibres during cell division It provides attachment of spindle fibres during cell division.
They are responsible for the inheritance of characters from parents to off-spring. Chromosomes also help in cell division and control various metabolic activities. It is the region of attachment of the sister chromatids and also the site of attachment to the spindle fibre.
