Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
During which process is the cytoplasm divided into two new cells?
A
Interphase
B
Mitosis
C
Cytokinesis
D
DNA Replication
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cytokinesis is the final step of cell division during which the two daughter cells become physically separated.

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 (/ˌsaɪtoʊkɪˈniːsɪs/) is the part of the cell division process during which the cytoplasm of a single eukaryotic cell divides into two daughter cells. Cytoplasmic division begins during or after the late stages of nuclear division in mitosis and meiosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cytokinesis is the physical process that finally splits the parent cell into two identical daughter cells. During cytokinesis, the cell membrane pinches in at the cell equator, forming a cleft called the cleavage furrow.
