As we have learnt in:

Prophase: 

  • During this stage the chromatin condenses and the chromosomes are visible.
  • The nucleolus disappears and the nuclear envelope fragments.
  • With the disappearance of the nuclear membrane, the centrioles migrate to the opposite end and the spindle formation occurs.
  • Till prophase, the chromosomes have no particular orientation because the spindle has not yet formed.
  • During late prophase or prometaphase, kinetochores appear on each side of the centromere. 
  • The sister chromatids are attached to the so called kinetochore spindle fibers with the help of kinetochore.

 

-During late prophase or prometaphase, kinetochores appear on each side of the centromere. The sister chromatids are attached to the spindle fibres with the help of kinetochore.
