Karyokinesis, or the partition of a nucleus into two daughter nuclei, comes before cytokinesis. All eukaryotes go through cytokinesis in a manner that is remarkably similar. However, it frequently varies between cells with a cell wall, like plant cells, and cells without a cell wall, like animal cells.

Answer: The main difference is the formation of a new cell wall surrounding the daughter cells.

Explanation:

In a plant cell, a cell plate is formed between the two daughter cells.

In animal cells, a cleavage furrow is formed between the two daughter cells.

Hope this helps :)
