Karyokinesis is the phase during mitosis during which the nucleus of a diploid cell splits to form two separate nuclei in whats known as a "clevage" from the anaphase to the telophase during mitosis. And is only obtained due to the pull of the protein fibres or spindles by the centrioles.

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
