CELL DIVISION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In the 2nd part of cell division, the cytoplasm divides. This is called ____
A
interphase
B
mitosis
C
cytokinesis
D
anaphase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell division ends as the cytoplasm divides into two by the process of cytokinesis. Except for plants, cytokinesis in eucaryotic cells is mediated by a contractile ring, which is composed of actin and myosin filaments and a variety of other proteins.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-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 cell cycle stage in which the cell must split its chromosomes and cytoplasm, producing two daughter cells. Cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm. The cytoplasm of the cell is being divided in order to obtain two new daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cytokinesis is generally defined as the division of the cytoplasm during the M phase of the cell cycle. It is the 2nd step in the M phase. This process also cannot occur without karyokinesis. It is generally the final stage of mitosis, whereby cytoplasm & other cell organelles divide between the two daughter cells.
