Centrosomes duplicate during the S phase of the cell cycle. This process involves the replication of the centrioles, which are key components of the centrosome. Each centrosome then consists of a pair of centrioles, preparing the cell for mitosis. Proper centrosome duplication is crucial for accurate chromosome segregation during cell division.
Centrosomes duplicate during the S phase of the cell cycle, specifically in the late G1 phase.
Centrosomes move to opposite sides of the cell during the prophase stage of mitosis. As the cell prepares to divide, the centrosomes duplicate and begin to migrate away from each other, establishing the poles of the mitotic spindle. This movement is crucial for the proper alignment and segregation of chromosomes during cell division. Ultimately, the centrosomes help facilitate the organization of microtubules that will pull the chromosomes apart.
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 produce Microtubules. This is the reason why they are also called "Microtubule Organizing Center". They help in regulation of cell cycle.
