Question: During metaphase, a step in the cell cycle, a cell — A. aligns its chromosomes in the middle of the cell. B. forms two new nuclear envelopes for chromosomes. C. moves its chromosomes to opposite poles of the cell. D. stimulates its chromatin to condense into a chromosome.
A. aligns its chromosomes in the middle of the cell. During metaphase, a stage of mitosis in the cell cycle, the chromosomes align at the metaphase plate, which is an imaginary plane equidistant from the two spindle poles. This allows the chromosomes to be evenly divided between the two daughter cells during the subsequent stages of mitosis.
