Question
what structures keep the chromosomes untangled during mitosis?
spindle fibers
chromatids
centrioles
Brief Explanations
Spindle fibers attach to chromosomes at kinetochores and help in their proper alignment and separation during mitosis, preventing tangling. Chromatids are the two - identical halves of a replicated chromosome, and centrioles are involved in spindle - fiber formation but do not directly keep chromosomes untangled.
