Question:
Centrosomes
Answer:
This is the area where microtubules are produced.In animal cell division the centrosome divides and and the centrioles replicate. The centrosomes move to opposite ends of the nucleus and form microtubules that grown into a spindle which is responsible for seperating replicated chromosomes into two daughter cells.Plant cells have centrosomes that function much like the animal cell but they do not have centrioles.
