Mitosis is the process by which the nucleus splits in two. Cytokinesis is the process by which the cell membranesplits, thereby completing cell division. Cytokinesis comes after mitosis. They are both processes in cell division.

∙ 15y agoCytokinesis is the process of dividing a cell in two. It is often described as division of the cytoplasm.
Mitosis is nuclear division. It is the highly ordered process that ensures that the genetic material (DNA) of the parent cell is distributed in such a way that each daughter-cell receives an exact copy.
Cytokinesis takes different forms in animals and plants. In animals the cell membrane folds inward all round the cell, until the membrane separates two daughter-cells. In plants the relatively rigid cell wall prevents this. A cytokinesis plate, formed of Golgi vesicles, is laid down, and grows until it separates the two halves of the parent cell.

What is the process that follows mitosis?
cytokinesis
The first step in meiosis?
Interphase then Mitosis then Cytokinesis then Mitosis the Cytokinesis That's what I remember. Mitosis will occur twice; the reason why there 4 daughter cells (gametes) and they are haploid.
What are the three stages of the cell cycle?
The three stages of the cell cycle are interphase mitosis and cytokinesis. Interphase is when the cell grows and get all the nutrients that it need for mitosis, and replicates the DNA. Mitosis is when the cell divides into two daughter cells. Finally cytokinesis when the cells are completely separated.
The cytoplasmic division is referred to as?
Cytoplasmic division is also called cytokinesis. This is the stage of mitosis in which the cell splits into two daughter cells.
What is the sage of mitosis in which cytoplasm divides?
cytokinesis
What is the difference between mitisis and cytokinesis?
The difference between mitosis and cytokinesis is that during mitosis the nucleus of the cell divides, and during cytokinesis the cytoplasm divides.
What are the differences between mitosis and cytokinesis?
Mitosis is the division of the nucleus. Cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm.
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.
What is the process between one mitosis and the next?
Cytokinesis
What phase of mitosis where the cytokinesis is completed?
Telophase is the last phase of mitosis. Cytokinesis is not actually a part of mitosis but happens after.
At what point in mitosis does cytokinesis occur?
Mitosis occurs during the last phase- Telophase.
What process follows mitosis in many cells?
Cytokinesis immediately follows mitosis in many cells.
Which one comes first mitosis or cytokinesis?
mitosis
What is an example of cytokinesis?
Cytokinesis occurs whenever a cell splits into two cells. Mitosis and Meiosis are the two main events where cytokinesis happens.
What occurs after mitosis?
cytokinesis
What is not part of the process of binary fission?
Cytokinesis.
The last stage of mitosis?
Telophase, but telophase and anaphase together are referred to as cytokinesis.
