One difference between mitotic cell division in animals and in plants is that in plants

• Chromosomes are duplicated, whereas in animals chromosomes are not duplicated

• Chromosomes are separated, whereas in animals chromosomes are not separated

• Spindle fibers are formed, whereas in animals spindle fibers are not formed

• Cell plates are formed, whereas in animal cells, plates are not formed

• Each daughter cell formed by mitosis has the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

• The parent cell and the daughter cells are genetically identical.
