Abstract

All steps of the mitotic and meiotic processes have given rise to a large number of theories and much discussion but none has been so prolific in this respect as the anaphase movement, when daughter chromosomes leave the equatorial plate and move their centromeres up to the poles of the achromatic spindle.
