During Which Phase of Mitosis are the Replicated Chromosome Aligned

Question

During which phase of mitosis are the replicated chromosome aligned in the middle of the cell?
A) prophase
B) anaphase
C) metaphase
D) telophase

Accepted Answer

During metaphase, replicated chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell, at the equator. This is facilitated by the spindle fibers that attach to the kinetochores of each chromosome and pull them towards the center.
