cytokynesis, or cytoplasmic cleavage occurs in the very end of the cell cycle, after telophase of mitosis is over. when the nuclear envelope reforms around 2 nucleii , the cytoplasm of the cell divides and a the cell membrane is disturbed and reseals itself around 2 new cells.

Cytokinesis is not the stage of mitosis. It is the process in which cytoplasm of cell splits while mitosis is a process in which nucleus of cell is splitted into two daughter nuclei.

Telophase.

It starts after mitosis. It divides the cytoplasm

Mitosis occurs during the last phase- Telophase.


When does cytokinesis occur in cell cycle?

It usually occurs in telophase of mitosis and in the M (mitotic) phase.

The first step in meiosis?

Interphase then Mitosis then Cytokinesis then Mitosis the Cytokinesis That's what I remember. Mitosis will occur twice; the reason why there 4 daughter cells (gametes) and they are haploid.


Can Cytokinesis only occur during metaphase?

No, metaphase is the fourth phase of mitosis.

What is the relationship between the processes of mitosis and cytokinesis?

Mitosis is the division of the nucleus, and cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm. Cytokinesis begins during telophase, and, unlike mitosis, occurs different in plants and animals. In plants, cytokinesis occurs when a new cell wall or cell plate forms between the two, newly formed nuclei. In animals, a cytokinesis is characterized by the formation of a cleavage furrow produced by contractile rings made up of microfilaments. (Campbell, and Reece 227). Cytokinesis would be a pointless process if not for mitosis because mitosis creates two daughter cells. If there weren't two fully formed nuclei by telophase, the cell would split and one "cell" would be left without a nucleus, and therefore useless. Although, by definition , mitosis may occur without cytokinesis, the two daughters must be separated in order to function properly and most efficiently.


Does mitosis occur in animals?

yes. mitosis is used in cell division


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.


Does cell growth and replication continue through the cell cycle?

No. Cell growth and DNA replication occur during interphase but do not occur during mitosis and cytokinesis.


What are the stages of mitosis and cytokinesis?

Mitosis and cytokinesis are elements of cell division. Mitosis is the duplicated genome in the cell is divided into halves which are identical. Cytokinesis is the where the cytoplasm of the cell divides to form two daughter cells.
