The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Text Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for the specific name of spindle fibers that connect the centromere of chromosomes to the respective poles during cell division. 2. **Identifying Key Terms**: - **Spindle Fibers**: These are structures that form during cell division to help separate chromosomes. - **Centromere**: This is the region of a chromosome where the two sister chromatids are joined together. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Estural Rays**: These are not related to spindle fibers. - **Interface Fibres**: These do not form during cell division; they are associated with the interphase of the cell cycle. - **Chromosomal Fibres**: This term refers to the spindle fibers that attach to the centromere during cell division. - **Interchromosomal Fibres**: These are not specifically related to the attachment of spindle fibers to centromeres. 4. **Conclusion**: The correct answer is **Chromosomal Fibres**. These fibers connect the centromere of the chromosomes to the spindle poles during the process of cell division. 5. **Final Answer**: The spindle fibers that connect the centromere to respective poles are called **Chromosomal Fibres**. ---
