Question

In which of the following division of centromere occurs?

• A. Late prophase or early metaphase
• B. Late metaphase or early anaphase
• C. Late anaphase or early telophase
• D. Late telophase

Answer 1

The correct option is B Late metaphase or early anaphase

Division of centromere occurs in late metaphase or early anaphase. During late metaphase, a chromosome consists of two chromatids, joined together by the centromere, which is further separated during the anaphase due to contraction and relaxation of spindle fibers.

So, the correct answer is option B.
