Karyokinesis: It is the division of nuclear material in cell division.

Cytokinesis: It is the division of cytoplasmic material during cell cycle of division

Karyokinesis occurs well before cytokinesis. And both the above steps occurs in mitotic or meotic phase depends upon the the type of cell.

Is mitosis same as karyokinesis?

No, mitosis refers to the division of the cell's nucleus, while karyokinesis specifically refers to the division of the nucleus during cell division. Karyokinesis is a part of mitosis, along with cytokinesis which involves the division of the cytoplasm.


What two processes does M phase consist of?

Division of the nucleus (karyokinesis) and division of the cytoplasm (cytokinesis).


What does mean cytokinesis?

organic process consisting of the division of the cytoplasm of a cell following karyokinesis bringing about the separation into two daughter cells


What is the difference between mitisis and cytokinesis?

Mitosis is the process in which a cell divides its nucleus into two, creating two genetically identical daughter cells. Cytokinesis, on the other hand, is the process where the cytoplasm of the cell is divided into two, completing the cell division process by physically separating the two daughter cells.


What happens in karyokinesis and cytokinesis?

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.


What is the difference between cytokinesis in plant animal cell?

In plants cytokinesis occurs by the formation of cell plate which takes place by centrifugal method while in animals it occurs by the formation of cleavage furrow which takes place by centripetal method.

What is the difference between animal and plant cell cytokinesis?

Why is cytokinesis mixed up with mitosis?

Cytokinesis is sometimes considered the last step in mitosis but is not actually a phase of mitosis but is initiated by it. Cytokinesis is just the process when the cell finally divides to form two cells which mitosis has prepared it for. Also because people are stupid and cannot tell the difference between the two.


Give the two major divisions of mitotic cell division?

The two major divisions of mitotic cell division are the first stage, known as karyokinesis, where the nucleus divides, and the second stage, cytokinesis, where the cytoplasm splits to form two daughter cells.
