How does plant cytokinesis fundamentally differ from animal cytokinesis in terms of precursor structure and direction of wall/furrow formation?

  1. A
    Plant: Cleavage furrow grows inward centripetally; Animal: Cell-plate grows centrifugally
  2. B
    Plant: Cell-plate forms at centre and grows outward centrifugally; Animal: Furrow appears in plasma membrane and deepens centripetally
  3. C
    Plant: Middle lamella breaks down outward; Animal: Aster microfilaments polymerize outward
  4. D
    Plant: Contractile ring constricts from outside inward; Animal: Phragmoplast deposits callose from inside outward
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.
