Sources
Notes Interphase not observed; spindle is excentrically positioned on one side of the early metaphase nucleus with most of the chromation and the nucleolus lateral to it; at late anaphase membrane bounded cisternae occur in the attenuated region of the nucleus
Character Quality Good
Fixation gluteraldehyde with osmium postfix
Study Complete No
