They attach to the centromeres and pull apart new chromosomes to the opposite poles of the cell
Dafna1 [17]2 years ago

Answer:

Spindle fiber is made up of microtubules that originates from the centriole present at both the poles of the animal cell. Plant cells do not contain centriole but can generate spindles from centrosomes.

During the mitotic cell division, the spindle fiber attach to a specialized structure made up of a protein complex called kinetochore which is present on the centromere of mature chromosome. Then these spindle pull the chromosome toward the pole through their centromere.

These spindle fibers help to separate the chromosomes during nuclear division in mitosis but it also helps in chromosome editing by holding two sister chromatids at their position together.  

The separation of chromosome is necessary so that after cell division both the daughter cell contains genetic material.

Which is a difference between proteins and carbohydrates and fats?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

HERE JUST TAKE IT

Explanation:

Ok, there's carbon and hydrogen in all of them, that's the only similarity. They are known collectively as macro-nutrients.

Carbohydrates are basically, oxygen, carbon and hydrogen and they're the bodies primary source of energy. This means that they're the first source of energy used which is why if you eat foods high in simple sugars you get a sugar rush. All carbs metabolize down to glucose, some faster than others.

Fats are called lipids. Lipids are very heterogeneous (this means that there's not much similarity between them). Some examples of lipids are steroids, seed oils, pork fat, cholesterol, etc. The main thing in common with them is that they don't mix with water. They are readily stored in fat cells in the form of tryglicerides and are used when carbs are all used up. They also yield the highest per gram amount of energy (it escapes me right now).

In a chemical sense, fats are lipids derived from animals (saturated, solid at room temperature) and oils are derived from plants and seeds (insaturated with some exceptions, and liquid at room temperature. Insaturated are healthier because they contain HDL which cleans your arteries (prevents artherosclerosis).

Proteins are made up of aminoacids, 20 make up the vast amount of human proteins. Enzimes (the most famous being digestive enzimes) are proteins, skin is covered in protein, hair is protein, cilia and flagella are protein, basically EVERYTHING is protein, after water the human body is basically protein. They're only used up as energy when everything else is used up.

When athletes eat/drink protein, it's to give them building materials in order to increase the amount of stuff inside their cells which will enable them to produce more energy.

lyudmila [28]

Answer: Visualizing Transcription

Explanation:

DNA is double-stranded, but only one strand serves as a template for transcription at any given time. This template strand is called the noncoding strand. The nontemplate strand is referred to as the coding strand because its sequence will be the same as that of the new RNA molecule.
