An optical cross section of the stages shownin the last figure is represented in Fig. 44, c. Anolder stage is seen in Fig. 44, d. The stage of greatestdiffusion of the chromatin material within its vesicle isseen in this figure, where the outlines of each vesicle arestill visible. As the nucleus gets ready for another divi-.
