"In animal cells, the cell membrane pinches in the middle and the cytoplasm divides. In plant cells, the appearance of a cell plate shows that the cytoplasm is being separated." - Glencoe Science Book 7th Grade "Life Science" 

<span>The above refers to the division of the cytoplasm, which is called </span>cytokinesis<span>. Although cytokinesis accompanies mitosis, it is not strictly part of it; mitosis is nuclear division. </span>

<span>* </span>

<span>In animal cells there is an organelle, the </span>centriole<span>, which is not found in plants. The centriole divides in two during prophase, and each daughter-centriole moves to a position that will be one pole of the spindle. </span>

<span>However, the centriole is not essential for mitosis in animal cells, and plant cells do not have one. </span>

<span>The term "microtubule organizing center" (MTOC) is used for any structure that forms the spindle. It is not yet clear what the MTOC is in plants.

The Sun has a part in many natural processes on Earth, such as _____.
sammy [17]
All of the above, here's an explanation. The sun helps the water cycle due to evaporation which causes it to turn into a steam/gas. Now for wind, it's because the sun heats up the air and causes thermal energy which later turns into wind. And finally, weather, obviously the sun evaporates water which causes it to be rainy/drowsy.

What two characteristics do fungi lack that forced them to become decomposers?? Please help :) **25 points**
Tamiku [17]
Fungi lacks the ability to produce their own food because they do not have chloroplast which is needed to obtain energy from the sun and convert it into food. Also fungi lack ability to fix nitrogen which has to be incorporated into their food. They also can not fix carbon and utilize it to produce food. Because of these they have to depend on dead organic matters for food.
