Front

What is the difference between cytokinesis in plant and animal cells?

Back

In plant cells, a cell plate forms; in animal cells, the cell membrane pinches in.

Front

What happens during anaphase?

Back

Sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.

Front

What is the role of the spindle fibers during mitosis?
