What allows the interaction between the mitotic spindle and the chromosomes to occur?
A)nuclear envelope breakdown

E)chromosome condensation

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The breakdown of the nuclear envelope allows the mitotic spindle to interact with the chromosomes. This allows the spindle microtubules to attach to the chromosomes and pull them apart during cell division.

Answer: E
 Chromosome condensation plays a role in allowing the mitotic spindle to interact with the chromosomes. Condensation allows the chromosomes to become more compact and visible, making it easier for the spindle microtubules to grab onto them and separate them during cell division.
