Cytokinesis — Definition & Overview

cytokinesis  Cytokinesis Definition Cytokinesis is the process following the division of the nucleus, the cytoplasm and plasma membrane are divided, Cytokinesis is the final stage of cell division in eukaryotes as well as prokaryotes During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm splits in two and the cell divides

Abstract Cytokinesis is the final process of cell division cycle that properly separates cytoplasmic components and duplicated nuclei into two daughter cells  Usually the cell will divide after mitosis in a process called cytokinesis in which the cytoplasm is divided and two daughter cells are formed Interphase
