Answer:
A centromere is the region of a chromosome to which the microtubules of the spindle attach, via the kinetochore, during cell division.

The centromere is the specialized DNA sequence of a chromosome that links a pair of sister chromatids. During mitosis, spindle fibers attach to the centromere via the kinetochore. Centromeres were first thought to be genetic loci that direct the behavior of chromosomes.
