The mitotic spindle consists of two types of microtubules: kinetochore microtubules and nonkinetochore microtubules. In animal c

ells, these two types of microtubules function differently in the stages of mitosis.

Answer:

The correct answer will be

1. Lengthen

2. Lengthen, shortens

3. Disassemble

Explanation:

There are three types of microtubules present during cell division: kinetochore, aster and polar microtubules.  

1. During prophase: all types of microtubules grow out at their positive(+) ends which functions to pull and push the sister chromatids apart towards opposite poles so they lengthen.

2. During anaphase : non-kinetochore microtubules- polar microtubules polymerization takes place at their (+) ends which causes the spindle fibres to move apart  while kinetochore microtubules which have been attached to the kinetochores of chromosomes shorten at their (+) ends and  motor proteins travel to (-) end because of which sister chromatids move towards the spindle poles.

3. During telophase: non-kinetochore microtubules depolymerize or disassembles.

Thus, 1. Lengthen, 2. Lengthen, shortens and 3. Disassemble are the correct options.

What is the mechanism of synaptic transmission?
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Synaptic transmission consists of three steps: (1) intracellular vesicles loaded with neurotransmitters are targeted to the presynaptic membrane; (2) an action potential triggers exocytosis to release the neurotransmitters to the synaptic cleft between two neurons
