Expert Solution
Step 1

Question 11

During mitosis a cell divides to form two daughter cells and the daughter cells have copy of every chromosomes and then separated to form new cells.

During metaphase of mitosis chromosomes are aligned in the middle of the cell forming metaphase plate.

During anaphase stage of mitosis the centromere divides and the sister chromatids separates which are pulled by spindle fibres called as disjunction of chromatid fibre.

The chromosomes are bound by histone proteins in kinetochore region which keep them tangling.
