Immediately after division, the asters undivided; the spindle has disappeared. F. Resting 2-cell stage, the asters divided into tvvo in anticipation of the next division. In Figs. A and /? the centrosome consists of a mass of intensely staining granules, which in Cand F elongates at right angles to the In F the centrosome appears as a single or double granule, which in later stages gives rise to a pluricorpuscular centrum like that in A. The connection between D and F is not definitely determined. In EuglypJia, according to Schewiakoff (Fig. 39), division of the cell- body appears to take place quite independently of the mitotic figure. Again, a considerable number of cases are now known in which dur- ing the fertilization of the ^.g^ a large amphiaster is formed, with.
