After the nuclear envelope breaks down, microtubules gain access to the chromosomes and, every so often, a randomly probing microtubule captures a chromosome and ultimately connects to the kinetochore to become a kinetochore microtubule of the spindle. Select one: True False

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Mitotic spindle formation depends on the capturing of microtubules at kinetochores. During prophase phase of the cell division, spindle fibers emerge from the centrosomes after nuclear envelope breaks down and nucleolus disappears

In the Prometaphase, kinetochores appear at the centromeres on one hand and on the other hand chromosomes continue to condense and mitotic spindle microtubules attach to kinetochores

Hence, it is true
