Spindle Fibres Describe Metaphase Form Animals Extend Centrioles

During metaphase, spindle fibres form, attach to the centromeres of chromosomes, and align them at the cell's equator.

Durante la metafase, si formano le fibre del fuso, si attaccano ai centromeri dei cromosomi e li allineano all'equatore della cellula.

Front Describe what happens during metaphase.
Back - spindle fibres form
- in animals, they extend from centrioles

- spindle fibres attach to centromeres
