Answer:

Spindle fiber can be defined as the fiber that helps in the process of mitosis as it forms a protein that aids in the division of the genetic material.

This fiber is very important to equally divide the chromosomes which divides the parent cell into 2 similar daughter cells when the nuclear division takes place in the cell..

The spindle fiber during the time of mitosis is known as the mitotic spindle.
