MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process where the cytoplasm divides is called ____
A
interphase
B
cytokinesis
C
mitosis
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: -In plant cells the cytoplasm is divided by the formation of a new cell wall, called the cell plate, between the two daughter cells. Once the daughter cells are separated, cellulose synthesis begins, and the cell plate becomes a primary cell wall.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cell division ends with the physical separation of the two daughter cells, a process known as cytokinesis.

Detailed explanation-5: -Answer to: In a plant cell, the process of cytokinesis proceeds via a process called cell plate formation. In plants, vesicles from the Golgi apparatus carry cell wall components to the equator of a dividing cell during anaphase. The vesicles fuse and form a membranous compartment called the cell plate.
