SPINDLE FIBERS

In Mitosis, Spindle Fibres form at opposite poles of the cell and meet at the equator. Collectively, they form a spindle-shaped structure which attach to Centromeres.

CENTROSOMES

The organelle located near the nucleus in the cytoplasm,
composed of 2 centrioles that divides during S Phase

Centrioles are surrounded by a mass of proteins (Pericentriolar Material (PCM))

Migrates to opposite poles of the cell during mitosis

Involved in the creation of spindle fibres

CHROMOSOMES

A threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes.

Centromeres
The constricted region joining the two sister chromatids that make up an X-shaped chromosome. It also serves as the point of attachment for spindle fibers when the spindle fibers are pulling the chromosomes toward the centrioles (situated on opposite poles in a cell) prior to cytokinesis.

Do you think humans will be able to genetically engineer future humans in your life time?
Vlad1618 [11]

✯Hello✯

↪  In our life time, I dont think so

↪  They will be making some robots but I think before any of this happens they will have to find a way to modify genes

↪  By modifying genes this could change people's hair and eye colour build etc

↪  This hasnt had any progress, but is sure to come in the future but I dont think unless there is a scientific revolution that humans will be engineered this way in our life span
