Best Answer

Mitosis is the division of the DNA between daughter cells. Rope-like structures called microtubules actually grab the chromosomes and pull each copy to separate sides of the cell. Cytokinesis is the physical separation of the cells - a ring of actin (a muscular kind of fiber) pinches the cell into two and creates two separate cells. Mitosis and cytokinesis together are called the M-phase of the cycle.
