Answer: -Second phase of mitosis-Each chromosome is attatched to spindle fibers -The spindle fibers pull the chromosomes into a line along the equator of the cell
What occurs during metaphase?

Metaphase (from the Greek μετά "adjacent" and φάσις "stage") is a stage of mitosis in the eukaryotic cell cycle in which chromosomes are at their second-most condensed and coiled stage (they are at their most condensed in anaphase). These chromosomes carrying genetic information align in the equator of the cell before being separated into each of the two daughter cells. Metaphase accounts for approximately 4% of the cell cycle's duration. Preceded by events in prometaphase and followed by anaphase microtubulesfor…

The origin and function of meiosis are currently not well understood scientifically and would provide fundamental insight into the evolution of sexual reproduction in eukaryotes. There is no current consensus among biologists on the questions of how sex in eukaryotes arose in evolution what basic function sexual reproduction serves and why it is maintained given the basic two-fold cost of sex. It is clear that it evolved over 1.2 billion years ago and that almost all species which are descendants of the original sexually re…
