Question

The karyotype, or chromosomal profile, for humans is shown. A karyotype can be used to investigate genetic disorders. The chemical colchicine is used in the production of karyotypes. Colchicine prevents spindle fibers from forming during the cell cycle what is a result if preventing spindle fibers from forming

Answer 1

The correct answer is - Mitotic division stops in metaphase and cannot proceed to anaphase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Spindle fibers do not form during metaphase of cellular division the chromosome would not move in opposite pole and the cell will not move to anaphase.

The chemical colchicine stops the assembling of the microtubules during metaphase of the cell division which prevents the formation of the spindle fibers and the cell did not move to the anaphase from metaphase in mitotic division.
