Solution

The correct option is A Metaphase
Metaphase is the stage at which morphology (structure) of the chromosomes are studied. The spindle fibres attach to kinetochores of chromosomes during metaphase. Nucleolus, Golgi complex and ER reform at the telophase. Centromeres split and chromatids separate at the anaphase. DNA duplicates during the S-phase.

Q. Choose the correct options from the following:
A. Centrioles are made up of nine evenly spaced peripheral fibrils of tubulin.
B. The centrioles in a centrosome lie parallel to each other.
C. The central part of the centriole is also proteinaceous and called the hub.

Q. Sir
How does mitosis occur in plants without centrioles and centrosomes. We are taught that spindle fibres are formed by centrioles moving to opposite poles of the cell and plant cells don't posses centrioles. Then how is the spindle apparatus is formed and constricted to divide the chromatids.
