I am not 100% sure but i am quite confident that it is the cell that lets humans have empathy, self awareness and forgiveness.

In 2006 it was found that whales and dolphins have spindle cells. Another animal that has spindle cells is apes and gorillas.

New Answer.

Spindle cells are only found in cancerous tumors. They have a very unique appearance and are characteristic of a specific type of dysplasia which is very rare in caner patients.

Spindle cells have an atypical spindle shape, have elongated nuclei and ropes of collagen. They arise from abnormal mitosis, cell division, that leads to the development of the cancerous tumor.

Spindle cell tumors start in the skins epithelial cells or lining of the internal organs. As the cancer progresses it can be spread to other areas.

(The above answer relates to the spindle neurons.)

What phase has a spindle that forms in a haploid cell?

The phase that has a spindle forming in a haploid cell is meiosis. Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces reproductive cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. During meiosis, a spindle apparatus helps separate the chromosomes into daughter cells.
