In plants cytokinesis occurs by the formation of cell plate which takes place by centrifugal method while in animals it occurs by the formation of cleavage furrow which takes place by centripetal method.

What is the difference between cell division in plant cells and in animal cells is that plant cells have?
One difference between cell division in plant cells and in animal cells is that plant cells have a cell plate. Animals cell's have a cleavage furrow.
What structure do plant cells have during cytokinesis that animal cells do not have?
Plant cells form a cell plate between the two new nuclei during cytokinesis. The cell plate form the cell walls for the two new plant cells. The cell plate formation takes place in plant cells during cytokinesis from the material received from Golgi bodies.
What does it called when the cytoplasm of a cell divides?
It's called cytokinesis. Cytokinesis occurs after the last stage of mitosis which is telophase (nucleus reforms, spindle fiber go away). Cytokinesis is different between plant and animal cells. In plant cells, the cells creates a cell wall through the cytoplasm and between the nuclei, splitting the "mother cell" into two "daughter cells. In animal cells, the cell begins to furrow in the middle and splits off into two. Without cytokinesis, complete cell division cannot occur. If cytokinesis does not occur and only mitosis occurs in the cell, the cell will become cancerous and hazardous to the organism that it is a part of.
What is the difference between cytokinesis in animal cells and cytokinesis in a plant cell?
In cells that lack a cell wall (animal cells), the cell pinches into two. In cells that have a cell wall (plant cells), a cell plate forms between the two new cells. --- Cytokinesis in an animal cell occurs by a process called cleavage. A cleavage furrow appears and at the site of the cleavage furrow, the cytoplasm has a ring of microfilaments made of actin associated with molecules of the protein myosin. This ring of proteins will contract causing the furrow to deepen, which will then in turn pinch the cell into two separate cells. In a plant cell, vesicles containing cell wall material collect at the middle of the parent cell. They will fuse and form a membranous cell plate. This plate will grow outward and it accumulates more cell wall material. Eventually the plate will fuse with the plasma membrane and the cell plates contents will join the parental cell wall. This results in two different daughter cells.
What process divides the cell cytoplasm in the last stage of mitosis?
Cytokinesis during telophase. In animal cells, simply put, it is like drawing the strings of a purse shut and in plant cells it is the building of a wall between daughter cells. Google cytokinesis.
What is the difference between animal cells an plant cells?
Animal cells separate by CYTOKINESIS while plant cells must grow a new cell wall for separation called a CELL PLATE.
During cytokinesis what is a major difference between cell division in plant and animal cells?
The major in cell division (cytokinesis) in plant and animal cells is in plant cells, meiosis is only undergone from a spore to a sporophyte (from 2n to n) whereas in the animal cells, meiosis splits the sex cells into 4 new cells.
What is the difference between an animal cell in an plant cell?
Animal cells separate by CYTOKINESIS while plant cells must grow a new cell wall for separation called a CELL PLATE.

Do animal cells undergo cytokinesis?
Yes.
What is the difference in cytokineses of a plant cell and an animal cell?
Cytokinesis in plants takes place by cell plate formation whereas in animal cells it is by furrowing.
