CELL CYCLE

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The final stage of the cell cycle is called:
A
Interphase
B
mitosis
C
cytokinesis
D
daughter cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cytokinesis is the final physical cell division that follows telophase, and is therefore sometimes considered a sixth phase of mitosis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cytokinesis is the final stage of cell division in eukaryotes as well as prokaryotes. During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm splits in two and the cell divides. The process is different in plant and animal cells, as you can see in Figure 7.3. 8.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cytokinesis starts during the nuclear division phase called anaphase and continues through telophase. A ring of protein filaments called the contractile ring forms around the equator of the cell just beneath the plasma membrane.

Detailed explanation-4: -Telophase is the fifth and final phase of mitosis, the process that separates the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells. Telophase begins once the replicated, paired chromosomes have been separated and pulled to opposite sides, or poles, of the cell.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm. The cytoplasm of the cell is being divided in order to obtain two new daughter cells. How does cytokinesis occur? Cytokinesis occurs in mammalian cell division when a contractile ring of microfilaments generates a cleavage furrow that pinches the cell membrane in two.
