Animal cells do undergo cytokinesis, which is the main step in mitosis and meiosis.during cytokinesis the cytoplasm (with doubled nuclei and organelles) of a cell splits equally into two daughter cells. one exceptional case in animal cell is that during oogenesis the ovum takes the major part of the cytoplasm and all organelles, giving a very small amount to the polar bodies.

How is cytokinesis diffrent in a plant cell and an animal cell?

In plant cells, cytokinesis involves the formation of a cell plate due to the presence of a rigid cell wall, while in animal cells, cytokinesis involves the formation of a cleavage furrow that pinches the cell into two. Plant cells also have unique structures called phragmoplasts that aid in cell plate formation during cytokinesis, which animal cells lack.


What does not play a role in cytokinesis in plant cells?

Well in theory everything plays a role in cytokinesis. From photosynthesis and respiration in plant cells to provide and release energy for the process, to a person undergoing respiration to return carbon atoms to the environment to provide material for additional cell division (in which cytokinesis is a part of the process).


What structure do plant cells have during cytokinesis that animals do not have?

In cells with a cell wall plates forms and seperates the new cells which animal cels can not do.


Which kind of plant tissue should lack phragmoplasts?

Tissues performing nuclear division without intervening cytokinesis


What structure do plant cell have during cytokinesis that animals cells do not have?

Cytoplasmic division of animal cells is accomplished by?

Cytokinesis is the division of cells in plants. In animals, it is called Mitosis. Mitosis has several phases, and in the end, there are four new daughter cells.


What process follows mitosis in many cells?

Cytokinesis immediately follows mitosis in many cells.


What is the division of cells cytoplasm called?

This process is known as cytokinesis.


How do cell that do not undego cytokinesis differ in appearance from cell that do undergo cytokinesis?

Cells that do not undergo cytokinesis will appear as a single, enlarged cell with multiple nuclei, known as a multinucleated cell. In contrast, cells that undergo cytokinesis will divide into two separate, distinct daughter cells with a single nucleus each.


How is cytokinesis different in plants and animlas?

Cytokinesis happens at the cell plate in the plant cell It happens at the ceavage furrow in the animal cell.... The only similarity is that it is the microtubules shortening and tightning until itll eventually pinch the mother cell into two identical daughter cells


What are two structures that plant cells have that animals cells lack?

Chloroplasts and cell walls


How does cytokinesis occur in plant cells with how it occurs in animal cell?

Each part of the pinched off cytoplasm contains its own nucleus and cytoplasmic organelles.
