Question

what happens during cytokinesis? near the end of mitosis, cytokinesis begins. during cytokinesis, the cytoplasm divides. the result of cytokinesis is two daughter cells, each with an identical nucleus. in animal cells, cytokinesis is accomplished by using microtubules to constrict, or pinch, the cytoplasm of the cell in half. the area where constriction occurs is called the furrow. the cell splits into two daughter cells. how is cytokinesis different in plant cells? plant cells complete cell division a different way. recall that plant cells are surrounded by a rigid cell wall. during cytokinesis, plant cells form a new structure, called the cell plate, between the two daughter nuclei. new cell walls then form on either side of the cell plate, dividing the cell into two identical daughter cells. think it over 11. name the cell structure that pinches the cytoplasm in half. take a look 12. identify what features in the figure can you use to identify this cell as an animal cell?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Cytokinesis is the division of cytoplasm at the end of mitosis. In animal cells, micro - tubules constrict the cytoplasm at the furrow to form two daughter cells. In plant cells, a cell plate forms between daughter nuclei and new cell walls develop on either side of it to create two daughter cells. For question 11, the structure is the microtubules forming the furrow. For question 12, the presence of a furrow instead of a cell plate is a feature indicating it's an animal cell.

Answer:

  1. Microtubules forming the furrow
  2. The presence of a furrow
