Because of the rigid cell wall, plant cells cannot have cleavage furrow like animal cells. To compensate for this, plant cells make cell plate, which divides the two daughter cells. The cell plate forms into a cell wall, effectively separating the two plant cells.

What happens during division?

prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase (including cytokinesis)


What does not belong cleavage furrow cytokinesis spindle fiber cell plate?

Cleavage furrow.Cell plate formation only occurs in plant cells. Spindle fiber is found in plant cells and cytokinesis occurs in plant cells.Cleavage furrow doesn't occur in plant cells and is the only one not to.


How is cytokinesis diffrent in a plant cell and an animal cell?

In plant cells, cytokinesis involves the formation of a cell plate due to the presence of a rigid cell wall, while in animal cells, cytokinesis involves the formation of a cleavage furrow that pinches the cell into two. Plant cells also have unique structures called phragmoplasts that aid in cell plate formation during cytokinesis, which animal cells lack.


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 structure do plant cells have during cytokinesis that animal cells do not have?

Plant cells have a cell plate that forms during cytokinesis, while animal cells form a cleavage furrow. The cell plate is made of vesicles carrying cell wall components that fuse at the division plane to form a new cell wall. This structure is unique to plant cells and allows them to complete cell division without pinching in like animal cells do.

How is cytokinesis in cells similar to cytokinesis is animal cells?

Cytokinesis happens at the cell plate in the plant cell It happens at the ceavage furrow in the animal cell.... The only similarity is that it is the microtubules shortening and tightning until itll eventually pinch the mother cell into two identical daughter cells


How does cytokinesis occur in a plant?

Cell Plate


What does not play a role in cytokinesis in plant cells?

Well in theory everything plays a role in cytokinesis. From photosynthesis and respiration in plant cells to provide and release energy for the process, to a person undergoing respiration to return carbon atoms to the environment to provide material for additional cell division (in which cytokinesis is a part of the process).


What happens to the nucleus during cytokinesis?

It splits into two.


What happens to the cell in cell division?

Mitosis followed by cytokinesis.


What happens when a Cell comes in contact with a substance that keeps it from dividing?

Cytokinesis is halted. Removal of said substance allows Cytokinesis to resume.


In plant cells what does cytokinesis require the new formation of?

a cell plate


What structure do animal cells have during cytokinesis that plant cells do not?

a cell plate


How is cytokinesis different in plants and animlas?

Cytokinesis occurs during?

Cytokinesis occurs during the final stage of cell division, following the separation of the genetic material in mitosis or meiosis. It involves the physical division of the cytoplasm to form two daughter cells.

What happens in the last cell of the cycle?

Cytokinesis is the last step.It divides the cytoplasm.
