⋅ In an animal cell, cytokinesis is achieved by the ap- pearance of a furrow in the plasma membrane ⋅ Cell wall formation starts in the centre of cell and grows outward to meet the existing lateral walls ⋅ Cell plate represents the middle lamella between the walls of two adjacent plant cells ⋅ During cytokinesis, organelles like mitochondria and plastids get distributed between the two daughter cells
