		During cell division the centrosomes organize the microtubules to form the spindle that divides the chromosomes into daughter cells.
		Centrosomes were first described in 1887, independently by German biologist Theodor Boveri (1862–1915) and Belgian biologist Edouard van Beneden.

	Meiosis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The kinetochore functions as a motor, pulling the chromosome along the attached microtubule toward the originating centriole, like a train on a track.
		The new equatorial plane is rotated by 90 degrees when compared to meiosis I, perpendicular to the previous plane.
		This is followed by anaphase II, where the centromeres are cleaved, allowing the kinetochores to pull the sister chromatids apart.

	CSC - Intelligent Design: The Origin of Biological Information and the Higher Taxonomic Categories
		While both the membrane targets and the centrosomes are made of proteins, the location and form of these structures is not wholly determined by the proteins that form them.
		Indeed, centrosome structure and membrane patterns as a whole convey three-dimensional structural information that helps determine the structure of the cytoskeleton and the location of its subunits (McNiven & Porter 1992:313-329).
		Preexisting three-dimensional form present in the preceding generation (whether inherent in the cell membrane, the centrosomes, the cytoskeleton or other features of the fertilized egg) contributes to the production of form in the next generation.
