Outside them the thin layer of contractile mantle-fibres attached to the divided chromosomes, of which only two are shown. Centrosomes and asters. F. Transverse section through the mitotic figure showing the ring of chromosomes surrounding the central spindle, the cut fibres of the latter appearing as dots. G. Anaphase; divergence of the daughter-chromosomes, exposing the cen- tral spindle as the interzonal fibres; contractile fibres (principal cones of Van Btsneden) clearly shown. H. Later anaphase (dyaster of Flemming) ; the central spindle fully exposed to view; mantle-fibres attached to the chromosomes. Immediately afterwards the cell divides (see Fig. 23). All these observers agreed, therefore, that the achromatic figure arose outside the nucleus, in the cytoplasm ; that the primary impulse to cell-division was given, not by the nucleus, but by the centrosome, and that a new cell-organ had been discovered whose special ofifice 1 '87, p. 279. 2'88, pp. 151, Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Wilson, Edmund B.
