Cytokinesis in plant cells occurs by formation of:
A
Cell plate
B
Cleavage furrow
C
Phragmoplast only
D
Both cell plate and cleavage furrow
Explanation
In plant cells, a rigid cell wall prevents cleavage furrow formation. Instead, Golgi vesicles fuse at the cell equator to form the cell plate (phragmoplast), which grows centrifugally (inside to outside) to divide the cell. Animals use an actomyosin ring to form a cleavage furrow.
