Question
Cytokinesis is ______, and begins during ______.Multiple choice question.the division of cytoplasm; anaphasethe replication of DNA; the S phase of interphasewhen chromatids separate; anaphasethe division of the cytoplasm; prophase
Solution
The correct answer is "the division of cytoplasm; anaphase".
Cytokinesis is the process where the cytoplasm of a single eukaryotic cell divides into two daughter cells. It usually begins during the late stages of mitosis in a phase called anaphase.
The replication of DNA occurs during the S phase of interphase, not during cytokinesis.
Chromatids separate during anaphase, but this is a part of mitosis, not cytokinesis.
The division of the cytoplasm does not begin during prophase, but rather later in the cell cycle during anaphase.
