<h3>What is the metaphase?</h3>

Metaphase is one of the cell division stages that follows the prophase and precedes the anaphase.

During this phase, chromosomes are taken toward the center of the cell by the spindle apparatus. Once in the equatorial plane, chromosomes randomly line up.

Once aligned, each chromatid joins with a microtubule of opposites poles and gets ready to go through the anaphase. Sister chromatids are held together until they reach the Anaphase.

Since chromosomes in this stage are well defined and can be observed in detail under the microscope, they are used to create karyotypes and identify chromosomal abnormalities.

These chromosomes have the typical X shape.

Among the options, the one that correctly describes the metaphase is Option is B. Mitotic spindle attaches to the chromosome's centromeres and lines them up in the middle of the cell.
