Question

In cell division, chromosomes move toward the poles via two different mechanisms: they are either pulled directly along by a transport protein along kinetochore microtubules or they are enclosed in vesicles for transport along nonkinetochore microtubules.

(A) True
(B) False

Answer 1

False

Step-by-step explanation:

During cell division in the anaphase stage, the chromosome separation takes place. The chromosome separation takes place by the depolymerization of microtubules and not by the vesicle transport or motor proteins.

The microtubule during anaphase or late metaphase attach to the protein on centromere called kinetochore and then the subunits at the centromere start disassembling or the microtubule depolymerisation. This depolymerisation brings the chromosomes to the opposite poles of the cell.

Thus, False is the correct answer.
