Question

Kinetochore is the

• A. Fibrous granular structure within centromere.
• B. Protein disc near centromere
• C. Construction near chromosome end.
• D. End of chromosome.

Answer 1

The correct option is B Protein disc near centromere

• The kinetochore is a disc-shaped protein complex associated with the centromere of a chromosome during cell division, to which the microtubules of the spindle attach.
• It forms on a chromatid during cell division.
• Hence Kinetochore is the protein disc near the centromere.
• So, the correct answer is 'Protein disc near centromere'.
