Question
true or false question
true or false: during anaphase, spindle fibers will overlap and help to elongate the cell and push the chromosomes further apart.
true
false
Brief Explanations
During anaphase of mitosis, the polar spindle fibers (non - kinetochore microtubules) overlap and slide past each other. This sliding action exerts a force that elongates the cell and also helps to push the chromosomes (which are being pulled to the poles by kinetochore microtubules) further apart. So the statement is correct.
