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.

When a cell divides what divides second?

During cell division, the nucleus divides in a stage called mitosis. This process ensures that each daughter cell receives an exact copy of the genetic material (DNA) stored in the nucleus. The cytoplasm then follows suit in a process called cytokinesis, dividing the cellular organelles and contents between the two daughter cells.
