Most routine metabolic processes occur during which phase of the cell cycle?

• Gap 1

• The S phase

• Gap 2

• The M phase

Which of the following statements explains the difference that occurs during cytokinesis in animal cells versus plant cells?

• Animal cells have a cell plate (starting portion of the cell wall) start to form in the middle of the cell while plant cells start to cleave in the middle.

• Plants cells have a cell plate (starting portion of the cell wall) start to form in the middle of the cell while animal cells start to cleave in the middle.

• Cytokinesis is the same in both plant and animal cells.

• Plants cells have a cell (starting potion of the cell wall) start to form in the middle of the cell and then have cleavage of the cell begin. Animal cells only have cleavage occur.
