  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Cleavage furrow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleavage_furrow

    In plant cells, Golgi vesicle secretions form a cell plate or septum on the equatorial plane of the cell wall by the action of microtubules of the phragmoplast. [2] The cleavage furrow in animal cells and the phragmoplast in plant cells are complex structures made up of microtubules and microfilaments that aide in the final separation of the ...

  5. Phycoplast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phycoplast

    Cytokinesis in green algae occurs via a diverse range of mechanisms, including cleavage furrows in some algae and cell plates in others. Plants (= Chloroplastida ) of the clade Phragmoplastophyta (a subgroup of charophytes which includes the land plants , desmids , water silk , stoneworts etc.) use structures called phragmoplasts to organize ...

  6. Plant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_cell

    Structure of a plant cell. Plant cells are the cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.Their distinctive features include primary cell walls containing cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectin, the presence of plastids with the capability to perform photosynthesis and store starch, a large vacuole that regulates turgor pressure, the absence of flagella or ...

  7. Actomyosin ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actomyosin_ring

    After cytokinesis is complete, one of the two daughter cells inherits a remnant known as the midbody ring. [ 8 ] Activation of the cell-cycle kinase (e.g. Rho-kinases ) during telophase initiates constriction of the actomyosin ring by creating a groove that migrates in an inward motion.

  8. Cytokinin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokinin

    While cytokinin action in vascular plants is described as pleiotropic, this class of plant hormones specifically induces the transition from apical growth to growth via a three-faced apical cell in moss protonema. This bud induction can be pinpointed to differentiation of a specific single cell, and thus is a very specific effect of cytokinin. [18]

  9. Mitosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitosis

    During mitotic progression, typically after the anaphase onset, the cell may undergo cytokinesis. In animal cells, a cell membrane pinches inward between the two developing nuclei to produce two new cells. In plant cells, a cell plate forms between the two nuclei. Cytokinesis does not always occur; coenocytic (a type of multinucleate condition ...
