Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What structure forms during prophase to help separate chromosomes? (2022)
  • Step 1: During prophase, the cell prepares for division.
  • Step 2: The chromosomes condense and become visible under a microscope.
  • Step 3: Structures called spindle fibers begin to form from the centrosomes.
  • Step 4: The spindle fibers extend across the cell and attach to the chromosomes.
  • Step 5: These spindle fibers help pull the chromosomes apart during the next phase of mitosis.
