The button-like structure that holds homologous chromosomes together at their middles during cell division is called the
Volgvan

Answer:

CENTROMERE

Explanation:

The CENTROMERE is the primary constriction region where the identical DNA molecules are most tightly bonded to each other during mitosis and meiosis.

The typical chromosome in metaphase is composed of two sister chromatids joined by the centromere.

Surrounding the centromere, we can find the kinetochores. These are laminar proteinic structures forming a plate where the spindle and kinetochore fibers will join during chromatids separation.

The position of the centromere defines the chromosomes as acrocentric, metacentric, or submetacentric.

bija089 [108]
<span>Inertia refers to a body or any physical object’s resistance to a change in motion. This change in motion includes, speed, direction, or state of rest. Objects that have moved will keep moving in a straight line at constant velocity. Inertia is one of the fundamental principles of classical physics, for it describes motions of objects and how they are affected when forces are applied on them. Inertia is one of Isaac Newton laws from Philosophia Naturalis Principia Mathematica. </span>
