Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following statements is true of cytokinesis
A
takes place in plant cells only
B
completes the cell cycle
C
organizes DNA
D
occurs in prophase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -One thing about the cytokineses is that they always finish there cell cycle. So, based from the information, your correct answer would be completes the cell cycle.

Detailed explanation-2: -In plant cells, cytokinesis is initiated with the formation of a cell plate inside the cell cytoplasm. Cell plate grows outwards and detaches the daughter cell from the parent cell. Cytokinesis in animal cells occurs by furrowing of the cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cell cycle culminates in the division of the cytoplasm by cytokinesis. In a typical cell, cytokinesis accompanies every mitosis, although some cells, such as Drosophila embryos (discussed later) and vertebrate osteoclasts (discussed in Chapter 22), undergo mitosis without cytokinesis and become multinucleate.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cytokinesis begins in anaphase in animal cells and prophase in plant cells, and terminates in telophase in both, to form the two daughter cells produced by mitosis.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cytokinesis is the physical process of cell division, which divides the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two daughter cells.
