if you were looking at cells under the microscope, and noticed that while in telophase, small vesicles line up along the middle of the cell, which of the following are these cells likely from?

Final answer:

Small vesicles lining up during telophase signify a plant cell in cytokinesis, where Golgi vesicles form a phragmoplast that develops into a cell plate, ultimately creating a new cell wall to separate daughter cells.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are observing cells under a microscope and notice that small vesicles line up along the middle of the cell during telophase, this is indicative of a plant cell undergoing cytokinesis.

In plant cells, these Golgi vesicles coalesce at the former metaphase plate, forming a structure known as the phragmoplast.

As they fuse and grow from the center toward the cell walls, a cell plate is formed.

This cell plate will eventually merge with the cell walls, becoming the new plasma membrane that separates the two daughter cells.

Unlike animal cells that form a cleavage furrow to divide, plant cells build a new cell wall through this process facilitated by the Golgi apparatus vesicles.
