Telophase: Cytokinesis occurs during meiosis and mitosis and is the stage at which the cytoplasm and surface membrane of the two cells divides, and the cells are distinguishable as separate.As a stage of the cell cycle, cytokinesis occurs at the end of mitosis/meiosis, and as a phase of mitosis/meiosis, it is itself a phase.

Cytokinesis is not part of prophase, metaphase, anaphase or telophase. In fact, cytokinesis is not even part of mitosis. However, since it occurs readily afterwards, it is often 'compatible' with the M phase.

Cytokinesis IS the phase when the cell divides. The phase prior to this (mitosis or meiosis) is simply the division of the nucleus. When the nucleus divides and the parts separate to the other sides, then the cell goes through cytokinesis and divides the cell in two.

Telophase I and II

actually cytokinesis is a phase a meiosis all its own. it is when the cytoplasm divides

What happens during m phase (mitosis) of the cell cycle?

Nuclear division by mitosis or meiosis


How many divisions take place during mitosis?

mitosis occurs in the m phase of the cell cycle and does not consist of any divisions. Cytokinesis is the actual division of the cell into two daughter cells containing identical genetic material. Cytokinesis almost always follows mitosis but is not considered an actual step in the process. So to answer your question, in cytokinesis there is one cell division resulting in two daughter cells


When does mitosis take place in humans?

There are four phases in the cycle of a cell's life: G1, S, G2, and M, in that order. Mitosis and cytokinesis occur in the M phase. Following the M phase is the G1 phase (cell grows), the S phase (DNA replication) the G2 phase (cell continues to grow and prepares for division), and finally the cell returns to the M phase and divides once again.


Are chromsomes duplicated during metaphase?

No, in Metaphase the chromosomes align in the center of the cell in association with the spindle fibers, and PREPARE to duplicate during the next phase of Mitosis, which is Anaphhase. The chromosomes are developing to duplicate throughout all phases of mitosis up until Anaphase when the chromosomes split into two and cytokinesis begins to take place so that two new cells will be formed.


What has to happen for cytokinesis to take place?

Mitosis or else a cell wont be able to divide or form Building off of this, you must go through the G0 G1 and G2 stages, each having a separate effect on the cell division, where mitosis follows, with P.M.A.T. or Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase happen. Telophase is commonly accepted as similar in function to cytokinesis, as in both the cytoplasm is dividing into the two daughter cells. Dont take my word for it, but this is what i learned!

What would happen to the number of chromosomes in a cell if mitosis occurred but cytokinesis did not take place?

The chromosomes would still duplicate, but the parent cell wouldn't split into the two daughter cells.


How many cells are present after cytokinesis (mitosis)?

Depends on what you are looking for. In mitosis, two daughter cells are produced after cytokinesis. In meiosis, there are two cell divisions that take place at two different times. One after meiosis I (which produces 2 intermediate cells) and one after meiosis II, which produces a total of four daughter cells.

What stage of mitosis do the centrioles move to opposite ends of the cell?

Two centrosomes are arranged at opposite poles of the cell are called prometaphase.


What stage of mitosis does the nucleolus disappears?

I am not 100% shure on this but i do believe it to take place during prophase


What stage of mitosis does replication happen in?

Replication does not take place during mitosis. It takes place before meiosis begins.
