How does cytokenesis occur in most animal cells?
This is straight from my biology textbook: "Cytokinesis differs in animal and plant cells. In animal cells, the membrane forms a furrow, or trench, that is pulled inward by tiny filaments, like a drawstring. Gradually the membrane pinches closed, forming a separate cell around each nucleus. During cytokinesis in plant cells, the membrane cannot pinchinward because of the cell wall. Instead, a cell plate forms between the two nuclei made by the Gogli apparatus, which supplies the new plasma membrane. A new wall then grows as cellulose and other materials are laid down."
What is the difference of animal and plant cells in cell division?
Basically, some organelles are found in plant cells and not animal cells & vice versa.borrowed from answers.com:The major differences in plant and animal cell division are in the assembly of the spindle apparatus. The site of spindle apparatus assembly is the centrosome. In animal cells, a pair of centrioles is at the center of the centrosome. In contrast, most plants lack centrioles, but they do have a centrosome. In animal cells, a cleavage furrow forms during cytokinesis, which deepens and then pinches the parent cells in two. Plant cells, which have cell walls, do not have a cleavage furrow. Instead, a cell plate is produced in the middle of the parent cell, which grows toward the perimeter of the cell until it reaches the plasma membrane, dividing the cell in two. A new cell wall then forms from the cell plate.
What do animal Cells have that other Cell types do not have?
All body cells contain a cell membrane which contains the contents of the cell, and a cytoplasm in which chemical reactions occur. Most body cells also contain a nucleus, but red blood cells (erythrocytes) are an exception to this.
What is term for the division of the cytoplasm during mitosis?
Cytokineses is the term used for division of cytoplasm. It is achieved by cell plate formation or by furrowing. In most of the plant cells cell plate formation is common. In animal cells and in bacteria it is by furrowing.
Do plant and animal cells develop a cell plate?
Nope. Cell plate is a structure that forms in the cells of land plants while they are undergoing cell division. The biggest and most noticeable difference between plant and animal cytokinesis is that plants form a cell plate while dividing, whereas animal cells form a cleavage furrow. Plants have to form a cell plate because they have cell walls and animals don't.
Why does cytokinesis occur in most animal cells?
Cytokinesis is nothing but cell division. Cell division is an inevitable part of growth. It is also necessary to replace old and worn out cells, for healing wounds etc. Many of the processes of animal life and growth depends on cell multiplication. Most of the cells in the body get worn out after a time of operation. It is similar to the wear and tear that occurs in machines. Hence as these old cells have to be replaced by new new cells and growth has to continue, cytokinesis occurs in most animal cells.

How is cytokinesis in plant cells different from human and animal cells?
Cytokinesis can take place in a number of ways. In most animal cells, the cell membrane is drawn inward until the cytoplasm is pinched into 2 equal parts. Each part contains it's own nucleus and cytoplasmic organelles. However, in plants, a strucutre known as the cell plate forms midway between the divided nuclei. The cell plate gradually develops into a separating membrane.

What is the most type of cells a animal have?
a animal that big have a million thousand cells
What animal has the most mitochondria?
The animal with the most cells in their body have the most mitochondria.

What does blood carry to the cells of an animal?
In its most basic function, red blood cells act as oxygen-transports for animal cells.

How are animal cells and human cells differ?
Human cells and animal cells may have a very slight difference but they are similar in most ways. Humans are classified as animals and thus have an animal cell.
