Routing Protocol Definition. A routing protocol is a set of rules used by routers to determine the most appropriate paths into which they should forward packets towards their intended destinations.
Spindle fibers are protein structures that form early in mitosis, or cell division. They consist of microtubules that originate from the centrioles, two wheel-shaped bodies located in the centromere area of the cell. The centromere is also known as the microtubule organizing center.
Figure 4. During mitosis, chromosomes become attached to the structure known as the mitotic spindle. In the late 1800s, Theodor Boveri created the earliest detailed drawings of the spindle based on his observations of cell division in early Ascaris embryos (Figure 4; Satzinger, 2008).
