centrosomes- it regulates cell motility, adhesion and polarity in interphase, and facilitates the organization of the spindle poles during mitosis.

aster- they hold the two centrioles at the two opposite poles, and help the spindle apparatus to position during nuclear division.

equator- it divides the planet into a northern hemisphere and a southern hemisphere.

cleavage furrow- is an indentation that appears in a cells surface when the cell is preparing to divide.

cell plate- a plate that develops at the midpoint between the two groups of chromosomes in a dividing cell and that is involved in forming the wall between the two new daughter cells.

kinetochore fibers- the main function is to generate load-bearing attachments of sister chromatids to spindle microtubules during cell division.

spindle- is used to ensure the chromosomes are positioned properly inside the cell during mitosis.

microtubules- they regulate cell growth and movement, as well as key, signaling events which modulate fundamental cellular processes.

cytokinesis- the process by which one’s self physically divides into two cells.

hope this helps :)
