What part of the cell cycle is occurring simultaneously to telophase?

Cytokinesis is the part of the cell cycle that occurs simultaneously to telophase. During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm divides to form two daughter cells following the completion of nuclear division in telophase.


What is the process of which cell's cytoplasm is divided?

Cytokinesis


In which phase of mitosis does cytokinesis take place?

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.


Which part of the cell divides during mitosis?

the nucleus


Which part of the cell cycle is taking place when the cytoplasm of the cell is separated?

Cytokinesis is the phase of the cell cycle during which the cytoplasm of the cell is separated, resulting in two daughter cells. This process occurs after mitosis, which is when the nucleus divides, marking the end of the cell division process.


What cellular part actually divides during mitosis?

The part of the cell that divides during mitosis is the nucleus. During mitosis other parts of the cell duplicate as well to create an identical cell for regeneration and repair of an organism.


What is the shortest period in the cell cycle?

Mitosis, also called the 'M' phase. actually that answer is incorrect it is actually cytokinesis actually cytokinesis is part of the M phase


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 part of the cell actually divides during mitosis?

the middle of the cell wallIt is the nucleus of the cell. It produces identical nuclei


Is cytokinesis a part of mitosis?

No, cytokinesis is the process of dividing the cytoplasm of a cell, while mitosis is the process of dividing the nucleus of a cell. Cytokinesis occurs after mitosis is complete.


What phase do both the contents of the nucleus and the cytoplasms divide?

The cytoplasm in a cell is not being divided, but rather pinched off by actin filaments. The actin filaments (microfilaments) in the cytoskeleton act as a drawstring and separate the adjoined cells so that they become two seperate functioning cells during Cytokinesis.


How does a cell divide?

Cell division occurs in two main stages: mitosis, where the cell's nucleus divides into two identical daughter nuclei, and cytokinesis, where the cell's cytoplasm divides to form two separate cells. During mitosis, the cell's genetic material is copied and then distributed evenly between the two daughter cells. The whole process ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes and organelles.
