"centromere" I don't use the metric system, what's this about half an inche?
"centromere" I don't use the metric system, what's this about half an inche?"
Let's see:
Centro - probably something 100
Mere - has to be merely, what else?
So maybe "Merely a hunnert footes or maybe a couple dozen rods or sumpin'"
Hope that helps
The centromere is the little connecting structure that holds 2 matching chromosomes together (at least, until mitosis or meiosis occurs). When you see a picture of chromosomes that look like X's, the centromere is where the X's cross.
