Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process in which the cell cytoplasm is divided to form 2 daughter cells is known as ____
A
mitosis
B
cytokinesis
C
synthesis
D
fertiliztion
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell division ends with the physical separation of the two daughter cells, a process known as cytokinesis. This final event ensures that nuclear and cytoplasmic contents are accurately partitioned between the two nascent cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cytokinesis is the physical process of cell division, which divides the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two daughter cells. It occurs concurrently with two types of nuclear division called mitosis and meiosis, which occur in animal cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cytokinesis is the process whereby the cytoplasm of a parent cell is divided between two daughter cells produced either via mitosis or meiosis. This is also often known as cytoplasmic division or cell cleavage.
