Question

What happens during metaphase (mitosis)?

Answer 1

in mitosis all the chromosomes get align in the metaphagic plate and centromere of chromosome is towards the plate and arm are towards the pole and here chromatids remain monovalent

in meiosis all the chromosome get align in metaphagic plate and the centromere of chromosomes are towards poles and arms are towards plate and here chromosome are bivalent

Answer 2

in metaphase stage of mitosis the chromosome align themselves at metaphasic plate and the centromere of each homologous chromosome is attached to spindle fibres by kinetochore complex....its da best stage for studying the structural features of chromosome
