Metaphase is when the chromosomes attach to the spindle fibers by their centromeres. This can be confused with the phases:prophase where the spindle fibers form a bridge between the ends of the cell, and anaphase where the spindle fibers draw the chromosomes to the opposite ends of the cell(the cell splits up) Report.
As mitosis progresses, the microtubules attach to the chromosomes, which have already duplicated their DNA and aligned across the center of the cell. The spindle tubules then shorten and move toward the poles of the cell. As they move, they pull the one copy of each chromosome with them to opposite poles of the cell. This process ensures that each daughter cell will contain one exact copy of the parent cell DNA. Mitosis consists of five morphologically distinct phases: prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
