Biology · CELL CYCLE AND CELL DIVISION
हिन्दीHow does plant cytokinesis fundamentally differ from animal cytokinesis in terms of precursor structure and direction of wall/furrow formation?
View Answer & Solution
Correct answer · Option B
Plant: Cell-plate forms at centre and grows outward centrifugally; Animal: Furrow appears in plasma membrane and deepens centripetally
Explanation
Plant cytokinesis begins with a cell-plate in the centre that grows outward to meet lateral walls, whereas in animal cells a furrow develops in the plasma membrane and deepens centripetally to join in the centre.
