During mitosis, chromosomes are moved and separated through the use of spindles composed of microtubules structures. These microtubules are attached to the chromosome as the process of mitosis takes place, whereas the chromosomes are already the duplicated DNA, that are aligned on the center of the cell. In order for the spindle microtubules to move towards the opposite poles, these tubules shorten, while pulling one of each chromosome to the opposite poles of the cell.

Final answer:

Microtubules
