A variety of cells, each captured during anaphase of the cell cycle. The genetic material, arranged into sister chromatids, are being pulled apart towards opposite poles of the cell by a network of microtubules radiating from the centrosome. Eventually the membrane will separate the cell into two parts, each half forming a new cell with a nucleus that contains the same number of chromosomes, identical to those of the original parent cell. i♡histo
