A) acrocentric

E) telocentric

A) Colchicine prevents cells from entering anaphase, stalling them in metaphase with condensed chromosomes.
B) Colchicine induces chromosome condensation during interphase, which allows the visualization of interphase chromosomes.
C) Colchicine causes chromosomal breakage, leading to inversions and translocations that can be observed with a microscope.
D) Colchicine ruptures the cell membrane, allowing the spreading of cells on microscope slides.
E) Colchicine causes cells to exit the cell cycle, making the chromosome easier to visualize.

A) The small fragment duplicates continuously.
B) The small fragment remains stable.
C) The small fragment often gets lost.
D) The small fragment pairs up with its homologous chromosome.
E) The small fragment tends to recombine back to a larger chromosome.
