acentric chromosome
An acentric chromosome is a chromosome or chromosome fragment that lacks a centromere, the region where the microtubules of the spindle attach during cell division. This condition often leads to the loss of the acentric chromosome during cell division because it cannot properly segregate into the daughter cells.
