hEyA here u go....
almost at the end (acrocentric) or joining the end of the chromatids (telocentric). The position of the centromere affects the shape of the daughter chromosomes during anaphase. Metacentric chromosomes produce V-shaped daughter chromosomes, submetacentric appear J-shaped and acrocentric form I-shapes

Metacentric chromosomes have the centromere located at or near the middle of the structure, resulting in two arms of equivalent (or nearly so) length. These chromosomes appear V-shaped when observed during anaphase.
