Answer:

a. disruption of mitotic spindle formation.

Explanation:

Vinblastine is a chemotherapeutic drug which is used to restrict cancer cell proliferation. During metaphase, it binds to microtubular proteins which play a very important role in mitotic spindle formation. If spindles will not form then during anaphase, the sister chromatids will not separate and mitosis will not take place. This is how hyper-proliferative cancerous cells are controlled from dividing and cancer is treated using this drug.

Why are marshmellows scientificlly the best tasting thing ever?
yKpoI14uk [10]
Marshmallows are probably so delicious because of several important factors. They are fluffy, soft, and oh-so sweet. They melt in your mouth and taste absolutely heavenly with chocolate and graham crackers. Or throw a couple in your hot chocolate. There's no wrong way to eat them and they're pretty cheap too.
