Centrosomes are typically spherical or oval-shaped organelles found near the nucleus of animal cells. They consist of two centrioles that are perpendicular to each other and surrounded by pericentriolar material. Centrosomes play a crucial role in organizing microtubules during cell division.
Animal cells have centrosomes.
Spindle Fibers are formed between centrosomes. Centrosomes migrate to opposite ends of the cell during cell division. The spindle fibers function is to anchor the centrosomes and chromosomes into the poles. The chromosomes then reel them selves in using the spindle fiber.

yes.
They help make microtubules.
Centrosomes duplicate during the S phase of the cell cycle, specifically in the late G1 phase.
Centrosomes produce Microtubules. This is the reason why they are also called "Microtubule Organizing Center". They help in regulation of cell cycle.
