Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The two main stages of cell division are called
A
mitosis and interphase
B
synthesis and cytokinesis
C
the M phase and the S phase
D
mitosis and cytokinesis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis is nuclear division during which duplicated chromosomes are segregated and distributed into daughter nuclei. Usually the cell will divide after mitosis in a process called cytokinesis in which the cytoplasm is divided and two daughter cells are formed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis and meiosis, the two types of cell division.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitosis and Cytokinesis During the mitotic phase, a cell undergoes two major processes. First, it completes mitosis, during which the contents of the nucleus are equitably pulled apart and distributed between its two halves. Cytokinesis then occurs, dividing the cytoplasm and cell body into two new cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
