1) Centrioles send out microtubules which bind to kinetochores to pull chromatids apart during mitosis. 2) A karyotype can be used to check for chromosomal mutations in the metaphase phase of the cell cycle. 3) Cancerous masses are expected to show gain of function mutations in checkpoint proteins and loss of function mutations in apoptosis-controlling proteins, leading to increased growth and decreased cell death.
