Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which stage of cell division divides the cytoplasm?
A
G1
B
G2
C
Cytokinesis
D
Mitosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cytokinesis starts during the nuclear division phase called anaphase and continues through telophase.

Detailed explanation-2: -During the mitotic (M) phase, the cell separates its DNA into two sets and divides its cytoplasm, forming two new cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cytokinesis begins in anaphase and ends in telophase, reaching completion as the next interphase begins. The first visible change of cytokinesis in an animal cell is the sudden appearance of a pucker, or cleavage furrow, on the cell surface.

Detailed explanation-4: -Along with telophase, the cell undergoes a process called cytokinesis that divides the cytoplasm of the parental cell into two daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -The third stage of the cell cycle is called cytokinesis. During this stage, the cytoplasm of the cell divides to form two cells. These two cells are called daughter cells. The new daughter cells are exactly the same as each other.
