Questions

  1. 1.

    Which of the following statements correctly compares cytokinesis in animal cells to cytokinesis in plant cells?

    • A) Animal cells construct a cell plate from Golgi-derived vesicles, whereas plant cells pinch inward using an actin-based cleavage furrow.
    • B) Animal cells divide through a contractile ring of microfilaments that forms a cleavage furrow, whereas plant cells assemble a cell plate from vesicle fusion.
    • C) Animal cells synthesize a temporary cellulose wall to divide the cytoplasm, whereas plant cells rely on intermediate filaments to pull the membrane inward.
    • D) Animal cells separate via the rapid depolymerization of astral microtubules, whereas plant cells pinch their rigid cell walls together using motor proteins.
