Question

What are Phragmoplasts?

• A. The spindle microtubules formed during cell division which are involved in pulling the chromosomes to the ends of dividing cell
• B. A set of microtubules formed during cell division to guide the dictyosome vesicles to the site of cell wall formation
• C. Narrow holes in the cell walls of adjacent cells through which protoplasmic connections are established
• D. The plastids in ray parenchyma cells to stems that store carbohydrates and other nutrients during dormant periods.

Answer 1

The correct option is A The spindle microtubules formed during cell division which are involved in pulling the chromosomes to the ends of dividing cell

During prometaphase, mitotic spindle microtubules from opposite poles attach to each sister chromatid at the kinetochore. In anaphase, the connection between the sister chromatids breaks down and the microtubules pull the chromosomes toward opposite poles.

So A is the correct answer.
