how mitosis differs in plants and animals?
26027
Plant and animal cells both undergo mitotic cell divisions. Their main difference is how they form the daughter cells during cytokinesis. During that 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 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.

How is cytokinesis different in plant and animal cells? Animal cells have a cleavage furrow which will pinch the cytoplasm into two nearly equal parts. While plant cells have a cell plate that forms halfway between the divided nuclei.

Which choice best distinguishes between mitosis and meiosis? Mitosis produces sex cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell, whereas meiosis produces somatic cells that are genetically different from the parent cell.

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.

Animal cells have centrosomes (or a pair of centrioles), 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.

The end result of mitosis and cytokinesis is two genetically identical cells where only one cell existed before. ... In plant cells and other cells that have rigid cell walls, the cytoplasm is divided in a different way.

What are the principal differences between mitosis and meiosis? Mitosis results in the production of two genetically identical diploid cells, whereas meiosis produces four genetically different haploid cells.

Mitosis and meiosis are similar in that both can only occur in eukaryotic cells. This is because prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus within which to begin the processes of mitosis and meiosis.

The steps in cell division are very similar between plant and animal cells, but the formation of the spindle and cytokinesis are different in plants. The mitosis process undergoes five steps: prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

Which statement best describes a difference between cell division in plant and animal cells.. In animal cells cytoplasmic division is accomplished by "pinching in" of the cell membrane, while in plant cells a cell plate is synthesized.

What is the difference between cytokinesis in plant and animal 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.

Explanation: The most important and observable difference in the plant animal cells mitosis is the cytokinesis. In plants a new cell plate is formed between the daughter cells for the future cell wall, while in animal cells the cell membrane constricts to separates the parent cell into daughter cells.

Plant and animal cells both undergo mitotic cell divisions. Their main difference is how they form the daughter cells during cytokinesis. During that stage, animal cells form furrow or cleavage that gives way to formation of daughter cells. ... During telophase, plant cells phragmoplast forms in the center of the cell.

Animal cells each have a centrosome and lysosomes, whereas plant cells do not. Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts and other specialized plastids, and a large central vacuole, whereas animal cells do not.

Answer: Both mitosis and meiosis are processes of cell division. They use the same steps for cell division, including prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

Describe 3 differences between mitosis and meiosis. ... Mitosis produces diploid cells (46 chromosomes) whereas meiosis produces haploid cells (23 chromosomes). Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells whereas meiosis produces four genetically different daughter cells.
