Differences between Mitosis of Animal and Plant Cells

Prophase:

Plants, Animals: Chromosomes condense.

Animals: mitotic spindle forms between centrosomes on one side of

the nucleus.

Plants: cortical microtubules grow together to form the spindle

around the nuclear envelope. Preprophase band (actin,

microtubules) forms under the plasma membrane at the place where

the new cell wall will be formed when the cell divides.

Prometaphase:

Plants, Animals: Nuclear envelope breaks down, chromosomes move to

metaphase plate, spindle captures chromosomes.

Plants: Preprophase band breaks down. Exact function of this

structure is not know, maybe changes the cell wall to "mark the

spot" for new cell wall formation during division.

Metaphase:

Plants, Animals: Chromosomes align at spindle equator.

Anaphase:

Plants, Animals: Chromosomes move towards cell poles.

Telophase:

Plants, Animals: Nuclear envelopes reform and chromosomes begin to

decondense, spindle breaks down.

Animals: Contractile ring (actin, myosin) forms approximately

midway between the two nuclei in the dividing cell.

Plants: Phragmoplast (actin, myosin, microtubules) forms in center

of cell, where new cell wall will be formed.

Cytokinesis (actual division):

Animals: Contractile ring contracts and pinches the two daughter

cells apart.

Plants: Phragmoplast extends to cell wall on both sides of

original cell, new cell wall between the two daughter cells is

completed.

What are some differences between animal and plant cells for fourth grade?

Animal cells have centrioles, which plant cells lack. Plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts for photosynthesis, while animal cells do not. Animal cells usually have a round or irregular shape, whereas plant cells often have a rectangular shape.


What are the fundamental differences and similarities between animal cells plant cells?

Both cells contain a- cell membrane, nuclues, cytoplasm. Plant cells have- cell wall, chloroplast and a large vacuole. ^ those are the very common differences and similarities of the common cells:)


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 are the main differences between animal and plant cell structures, and how do plant cell questions help in understanding their unique characteristics?

Animal cells and plant cells have several key differences in their structures. Plant cells have a rigid cell wall made of cellulose, while animal cells do not. Plant cells also have chloroplasts for photosynthesis, which animal cells lack. Plant cells have a large central vacuole for storage, while animal cells have smaller vacuoles. Studying plant cell structures helps us understand their unique characteristics, such as their ability to produce energy through photosynthesis and their structural support provided by the cell wall.


What is the most noticeable difference between plant and animal cells?

One of the most noticeable differences between plant and animal cells is the presence of a cell wall in plant cells, which provides structural support and protection. Additionally, plant cells have chloroplasts for photosynthesis, while animal cells do not.
