Question

The fig given alongside shows a certain stage in a cell division in a cell  with four chromosomes.

(i) Name the parts of the chromosome labeled A and B.
(ii) Name the structure C. what is its function?
(iii) Name the type of division . Give a reason.
(iv) Name the stage of division.

Solution

(i) A - Duplicated chromosomes
B - Centromere
(ii) The structure C is Spindle fibre. Its function is to help in the movement of chromosomes.
(iii) The type of cell division is mitosis because all chromosomes appear to be same as there is no crossing over.
(iv) Metaphase.
(v) Prophase occurs before metaphase and after metaphase anaphase takes place.
