Solution

The correct option is A Bipolar
In mitosis, the spindle is bipolar. It is a spindle-shaped structure that develops outside the nucleus during mitosis. The fibers that constitute the mitotic spindle pull the chromatids apart towards the opposite poles. Thus, forming two poles in a single spindle. Therefore we say that the mitotic spindle is bipolar.
So, the correct answer is option A.
