The centrosome is present outside the nucleus in an animal cell. It is the structure that contains centrioles. These are the structures that are essential during cell division. The plant cells lack centrioles and are able to divide in their absence.

Further Explanation:

The centrioles are present particularly in animal cells and are located within the centrosome which is present near the nucleus. The centrosome is a granular mass that acts as a center for microtubules. The centrioles are two in numbers and are positioned at the right angle with respect to each other. Each centriole is composed of microtubules forming nine bundles that are arranged in a ring formation.

In an animal cell during interphase, the components of the centrosome along with the centrioles are doubled. Initially, the duplicated pairs of centrioles remain close to each other but with the initiation of mitosis, the pairs tend to separate and get located in the newly formed microtubule-organizing centers. The microtubules are radiated through these centers in the star-shaped clusters called asters. With the movement of asters towards the opposite poles, the microtubules span the cell attaining a spindle-shaped formation. The spindle fibers help in the alignment of chromosomes during their separation at the time of cell division.

In animal cells, centrioles are important for mitosis to take place whereas reproduction in plant cells can occur even without centrioles. The presence of centrioles in animal cells has made mitosis an efficient and error-free process while its absence results in divisional errors and also delays the mitotic process.

Imagine you are a student in alfred hershey and martha chase's lab in the late 1940's. you are given five test tubes with the e. coli bacteria that were infected with t2 bacteriophage that have been labeled with 32p or 35s. unfortunately, you forgot to label the tubes and are now uncertain which were 32p labeled and which were 35s labeled. you place the contents of each tube in a blender and pulse it for a few seconds to shear off the protein coats from the bacterial outer membranes. you then centrifuge the contents to seperate the protein coats and the bacterial cells. you then check for radioactivity and obtain the results shown below. which tubes contained e. coli infected with the phage labeled with 32p? select all tubes that apply.
