Cytokinesis can best be explained as the process of cell division - the realignment of chromosomes during metaphase - pinching in of the cytoplasm during telophase - when the centrioles move to the poles of the cell during telophase.

Cytokinesis Below are several characteristics of cytokinesis. Determine if each occurs in plant cells or in animal cells. Cytokinesis in Plants: - Forms a contractile ring that pinches off the two cells. - Forms a cell plate. - New cells are strengthened by cellulose fibrils. - Forms a cleavage furrow. Cytokinesis in Animals: - Plasma membrane and cell armos divide the two daughter cells. - Division aided by actin filaments.
