Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When does the following take place:the cytoplasm is cut, producing two new daughter cells.
A
Cytokinesis
B
Prophase
C
Anaphase
D
Metaphase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During the mitotic (M) phase, the cell separates its DNA into two sets and divides its cytoplasm, forming two new cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cell is being cleaved into two daughter cells, which occurs during cytokinesis. Sister chromatins separate during anaphase, the nuclear membrane reforms and DNA unwinds during telophase, so the cell has passed those stages leaving only cytokinesis before the daughter cells repeat the process over again.

Detailed explanation-3: -After cytokinesis I, the two daughter cells are produced from the cytoplasmic division that have exact copies of DNA. The daughter cells are haploid, and each daughter cell consists of a single set of chromosomes or half the content of genetic material of the original cell.
