describe how cytokinesis is different in plants and animals?
17656
Cytokinesis occurs differently in animal and plant cells. In animal cells, the plasma membrane of the parent cell pinches inward along the cell's equator until two daughter cells form. In plant cells, a cell plate forms along the equator of the parent cell.

The similarities between mitosis in plant and animal cells include the condensing of the chromosomes during prophase, the lining up of chromosomes in the centre of the cell during metaphase, the formation of the mitotic spindle, and the separation of the chromatids during anaphase.

Mitosis cannot happen without cytokinesis. Mitosis is the process a cell goes through to produce 2 new cell nuclei. If mitosis happened but cytokineses did not, then one cell would have 2 nuclei in it. Cytokinesis is the splitting of the cytoplasm.

Plant and animal cells both undergo mitotic cell divisions. Their main difference is how they form the daughter cells during cytokinesis. During that's stage, animal cells form furrow or cleavage that gives way to formation of daughter cells. Due to the existence of the rigid cell wall, plant cells don't form furrows.

Cytokinesis. Cytokinesis is the final stage of cell division in eukaryotes as well as prokaryotes. ... In animal cells, the plasma membrane of the parent cell pinches inward along the cell's equator until two daughter cells form. In plant cells, a cell plate forms along the equator of the parent cell.

How does plant mitosis accommodate a rigid, inflexible cell wall? ... The animal cells also have centrioles to form spindle fibers for separating the chromosomes. The plant cells, on the other hand, have cell wall; therefore the plant cells cannot pinch to form two cells.

A difference between plant cells and animal cells is that most animal cells are round whereas most plant cells are rectangular. Plant cells have a rigid cell wall that surrounds the cell membrane.

Plant and animal cells both undergo mitotic cell divisions. Their main difference is how they form the daughter cells during cytokinesis. ... Plant cells don't have centrioles. Lastly, animal cells divide everywhere and all the time while plant cells divide in a specialized region called the meristems.
9615
Plant and animal cells have several differences and similarities. For example, animal cells do not have a cell wall or chloroplasts but plant cells do. Animal cells are mostly round and irregular in shape while plant cells have fixed, rectangular shapes.

The last stage is cytokinesis, which is the splitting of the cell membrane to form two new cells after the cytoplasm divides. ... The cell cycle (interphase) and mitosis are vital in both plant and animal cells as they allow growth and repair and asexual reproduction to occur.

Nuclear division divides the genetic material in the nucleus, while cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm.
969925
Cytokinesis is the process in which the cytoplasm of a single eukaryotic cell is divided to form two daughter cells. ... Animal cells divide by a cleavage furrow. Plant cells divide by a cell plate that eventually becomes the cell wall. Cytoplasm and cell membranes are necessary for cytokinesis in both plants and animals.

The main difference between the mitosis of animal cells and the mitosis of plant cells is that in animal cells it is subjected to a cellular furrow, whereas the cells of plants do not do so due to the rigid cell wall. The main difference is during the last phase of mitosis, which is telophase.
279982
When plants and animals reproduce their cells asexually, the process is known as mitosis. ... The differences have largely to do with specialized structures in each type of cell. Plants have both a cell membrane and a cell wall, whereas animal cells have no cell wall.
442329
Plant and animal cells contain different organelles, which are tiny structures inside the cells that perform different functions. However, both plant and animal cells serve the same basic functions. They divide over time so that plants and animals can change and grow.

Terms in this set (5) Plant Cells have a Cell Wall and a Cell Membrane; Animal Cells only have a Cell Membrane. Animal Cells have a Cytoskeleton, but Plant Cells do not. Plant Cells have Chloroplasts, but Animal Cells do not. Plant Cells have a large central water Vacuole; Animal Cells only have small Vacuoles.

Animal cells have centrioles, centrosomes (discussed under the cytoskeleton), and lysosomes, whereas plant cells do not. Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, plasmodesmata, and plastids used for storage, and a large central vacuole, whereas animal cells do not.
