Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following terms means cytoplasmic division?
A
interphase
B
mitosis
C
cytokinesis
D
cell cycle
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: -Cytokinesis is the process whereby the cytoplasm of a parent cell is divided between two daughter cells produced either via mitosis or meiosis. This is also often known as cytoplasmic division or cell cleavage.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cytokinesis is the final step of cell division during which the two daughter cells become physically separated.
