Lily mitosis. A light microscope image of a cell from the endosperm of an African globe lily Haemanthus (Scadoxus) katherinae. This is one frame of a sequence that shows all phases of mitosis. The lily is considered a good organism for studying cell division because its endosperm has a liquid phase and chromosomes are thick and easier to see than human ones. Staining shows microtubules in red and chromosomes in blue.
This image showing a cell in prophase is the 3rd of a grouped series that spans mitosis.

莉莉有丝分裂。此描述为一幅来自非洲球形百合（Haemanthus (Scadoxus) katherinae）种子的细胞光显微镜图像。该图像展示了有丝分裂的各个阶段之一。由于百合种子的胚乳处于液态阶段，且染色体较人类染色体更为粗厚，便于观察，因此百合被视为研究细胞分裂的理想生物模型。染色技术使微管呈现红色，染色体则呈现蓝色。展示有丝分裂前期细胞的该图像，是该系列中第三幅，该系列涵盖了有丝分裂的全过程。
