Which of the following terms means cytoplasmic division?
A
interphase
B
mitosis
C
cytokinesis
D
cell cycle
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Summary. Cell division ends as the cytoplasm divides into two by the process of cytokinesis.

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.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cytokinesis is the final step of cell division during which the two daughter cells become physically separated.

Detailed explanation-5: -One division brings the cell to the end of the process of mitosis. Each haploid daughter cell divides during the second meiotic division also known as cytokinesis 2.
