  2. Phycoplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phycoplast

    The growth of the cell plate eventually disrupts the telophase spindle (see case 4 in picture). In the Chlorophyceae , the most common form of cell division occurs via a phycoplast. In these algae, the spindle collapses and a new system of microtubules forms that is oriented in parallel to the plane of cell division.

  3. Phragmoplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phragmoplast

    The cell plate will transform into the new cell wall once cytokinesis is complete. The phragmoplast is a plant cell specific structure that forms during late cytokinesis . It serves as a scaffold for cell plate assembly and subsequent formation of a new cell wall separating the two daughter cells.

  4. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of four distinct phases: G 1 phase, S phase (synthesis), G 2 phase (collectively known as interphase) and M phase (mitosis and cytokinesis). M phase is itself composed of two tightly coupled processes: mitosis, in which the cell's nucleus divides, and cytokinesis, in which the cell's cytoplasm and cell membrane divides forming two daughter cells.

  5. Cytokinesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokinesis

    Cytokinesis illustration Ciliate undergoing cytokinesis, with the cleavage furrow being clearly visible. Cytokinesis (/ ˌ s aɪ t oʊ k ɪ ˈ n iː s ɪ s /) is the part of the cell division process and part of mitosis during which the cytoplasm of a single eukaryotic cell divides into two daughter cells.

  6. Mitosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitosis

    The phragmoplast is a microtubule structure typical for higher plants, whereas some green algae use a phycoplast microtubule array during cytokinesis. [39]: 64–7, 328–9 Each daughter cell has a complete copy of the genome of its parent cell. The end of cytokinesis marks the end of the M-phase.

  7. Guillardia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillardia

    Mechanisms used to control photosynthetic pigments in Guillardia vary depending on the growth stage. In logarithmic growth stages, Guillardia uses state transitions to modulate energy inputs, while in the stationary growth phase, the cell uses non photochemical quenching, a mechanism to protect plants and algae from high light intensity.

  8. Coenocyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coenocyte

    Coenocyte of Sphaeroforma arctica Botrydium, showing a coenocytic body. A coenocyte (/ ˈ s iː n ə ˌ s aɪ t /) is a multinucleate cell which can result from multiple nuclear divisions without their accompanying cytokinesis, in contrast to a syncytium, which results from cellular aggregation followed by dissolution of the cell membranes inside the mass. [1]

  9. Dictyosphaeria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dictyosphaeria

    In addition, since this macroalgae is a large cell unit, mitotic division and cytokinesis were observed in the development of the zoospores. The unique process of cell division in this genus is observed in a study by Hori and Enomoto (1978). The mitotic spindle is placed centrally at the early course of the zooid differentiation.
