Late anaphase. H. Final phase. in which the origin of the pole-plates has been definitely made out. In all cases, however, it is assumed that the so-called nucleolus or "achromatic body," which is generally present in the resting cell- nucleus, becomes modified in some manner (Hertwig, '95, assumed by the addition of water or other fluid substance) until it is much en- larged, when it forms the pole-plates. This general view is based upon the supposition that, like a centrosome, the achromatic body divides, half going to one pole and half to the other. In Sarcodina, as in Infusoria, there is no direct evidence to de- termine the history of the "achromatic" body within the nucleus,.
