Question

The cytoplasm divides during this segment of mitosis _____.

prophase
telophase
metaphase
cytokinesis

Answer 1

Cytokinesis

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual division of the cytoplasm that results in two daughter cells is called cytokinesis. Cytokinesis occurs following the spindle apparatus break down and a nuclear membrane is formed around each set of chromatids. The newly formed daughter cells enter interphase and prepare for the next division.

Answer 2

The correct option is D) cytokinesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Mitosis can be described as a process in a cell replicates to form two identical copies of itself.

Cytokinesis can be described as the last stage of cell division for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. During this stage, the cytoplasm eventually divides and the cell splits into two with equal portions of cytoplasm in each side. Although the mechanism of cytokinesis is different for both plants and animals yet it is the final stage for both the cell type in which the cytoplasm splits.
