Mitosis, light micrograph
Fluorescent light micrograph of cells in interphase of mitosis (nuclear division). Mitosis is the formation of two daughter nuclei from one parent nucleus. Fluorescent markers have been used to highlight alpha tubulin (green), a component of microtubules, and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid, pink). During interphase the nucleus (pink) is clearly visible. As the cell moves into the next stage of mitosis the nuclear envelope will dissolve and the chromosomes condense., by DR. JUAN F. GIMENEZ-ABIAN / SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY
