centrosome

Cell body that contains the centrioles. 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.
