- The centromeric connections between chromatids fail to be severed. Kinetochores from sister chromatids become attached to microtubules from the same pole. A motor protein at the kinetochore is not functional. The chromosomes fail to attach to the kinetochore microtubules. Chromosomes will not move to the metaphase plate. Chromatids will not separate during anaphase. One kinetochore will detach from the spindle. Chromosomes will not move toward centrosome during prometaphase.arrow_forwardA cell in G1 of interphase has 12 chromosomes.

For the mitotic and meiotic stages below, draw the chromosomes and chromatids, and give the number of homologous pairs, chromosomes, and chromatids present.
