Well the centromere in the center of the cell. it divides the nuccleous and really does all the work. For you kids in middle school who need to know this, its qutie simple the pro[hase and anaphase start the metaphase which leads into the interphase which DNA replication occurrs.

∙ 13y agoThe centromere is the region of DNA which is where two identical sister chromatids meet (usually the center of the chromosome). The centromere itself is used as the binding point for the mitotic spindle. This then allows each cromatid to be pulled to opposite sides of the cell.
Essentially the chromatid is a marker/binding site for the mitotic spindle.

What struture connects the two chromatids?
that would be the centromere
What is the area where a pair of chromatids is attached is the?
The Centromere, use the wiki article for further reading.
Two chromatids of a chromosome are attached at a point called?
The two chromatids of a chromosome are attached at a point called the centromere. It is the point which it is attached to a spindle fiber during the process of cell division.
What is a structure joining two threads of a chromosome?
centromere
Where are chromatids held together?
the centromere is where the sister chromatids interlock in the middle but the kinetochore holds them together.
Why does plant cells undergo mitosis inspite of the absence of centriole?
Inspite of the absene of centrioles,the centromere can organise spindle which is an apparatus for mitosisto take place.Thus,the centromere functions in the absence of the centriole.
What are chromosomes that are of the same size and function and the centromere is at the same location yet are not homologous?
Chromosomes of the same size and functions and with the centromere located at the same location are called homologous chromosomes. What if they are not homologous?
Sister chromatids are attached to each other at an area called the?
The chromatids are attached to each other at the Centromere. Hope that helps have a nice day.

The Centromere, use the wiki article for further reading.
The chromatid is attached to a spindle fiber by what?
one word Centromere
Two chromatids of a chromosome are attached at a point called?
The two chromatids of a chromosome are attached at a point called the centromere. It is the point which it is attached to a spindle fiber during the process of cell division.
What is a structure joining two threads of a chromosome?
centromere
The sister chromatids in a chromosome are attached together by the?
centromere
Where are chromatids held together?
the centromere is where the sister chromatids interlock in the middle but the kinetochore holds them together.
What is sister chromatids held together by?
Sister chromatids are held together at a region of highly condensed DNA called the centromere. The centromere region is very important during the process of cell division where chromosomes have to segregate into daughter cells. In addition, chromosomes are classified into different groups based on the position of the centromere
What is the eyes main functions?
To see. Vision is the main function.
