How is cytokinesis different in animals and plants? Animal cells get pinched into two daughter cells by the cell membrane; the p

lant cell has to form a cell plate before it can create daughter cells. Animal cells give daughter cells a full set of chromosomes at the time of division; plant cells give daughter cells a half set of chromosomes. Animal cells require an extra growth phase before cytokinesis; plant cells move straight to cytokinesis. Animal cells begin cytokinesis during anaphase; plant cells begin around the same time as telophase.

<h2><em>Let's review what cytokinesis is first.</em></h2>

<em>Cytokensis</em> is the <em>physical process of cell division</em>. It divides the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two different daughter cells.

In plants, a cell wall forms. Cytokensis occurs in mitosis and meiosis. The objective for cytokensis is to divide the parent cell into two daughter cells. So cytokensis in plants is when a cell wall forms in between the daughter cells. Plant cells have walls, so they CANNOT divide using a cleavage furrow. A cell plate forms across the cell during telophase.

In animal cells, cleavage furrow forms. This pinches the cell in half and forms two different cells.  

<em>A cleavage furrow is an indentation that appears in the cells surface when the cell is preparing to divide.</em>

So, let's review our options:

A: Animal cells get pinched into two daughter cells by the cell membrane; the plant cell has to form a cell plate before it can create daughter cells.

This would be the <em>correct answer.</em><em> </em>The only main difference between animal cell cytokensis vs plant cell cytokensis is the cell wall that animal cells lack. Animal cells get pinched into two daughter cells, by the cleavage furrow in the cell membrane, while the plant cell has to form a cell plate before it can create daughter cells.

B: Animal cells give daughter cells a full set of chromosomes at the time of division; plant cells give daughter cells a half set of chromosomes. .

This can be disproven. In meosis, a cell divides into four cells that have half the number of chromosomes. In mitosis, all chromosomes are kept. Both Plant & Animal cells both reproduce using both both meosis and mitosis, so this option is <em>irrelevant. </em>

C: Animal cells require an extra grow phase before cytokensis; plant cells move straight to cytokensis.

Both animal cells and plant cells have the same amount of "grow phases" before cytokensis. This option is<em> irrelevant. </em>

D: Animal cells begin cytokensis during anaphase, plant cells begin around the same time as telophase.

They both begin during the same time. This option is also<em> irrelevant.</em>

The second stage of the calvin cycle needs an input of energy to reduce the 3pg molecules that resulted from the first stage. wh
Colt1911 [192]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

ATP and NADPH that were supplied through the light reactions

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Calvin cycle reaction is the portion of photosynthesis that takes place in the stroma of chloroplasts and can occur in the dark; it uses the products of the light reactions to reduce CO2 to a carbohydrate.</u></em>
  • The Calvin cycle is divided into three portions: CO2 fixation, CO2 reduction, and regeneration of RuBP. Because five G3P are needed to re-form three RuBP, it takes three turns of the cycle to have a net gain of one G3P. Two G3P molecules are needed to form glucose.

Answer:

The further away means it gets a weaker source if light and less reaches it.

Explanation:

Since the plant produces oxygen in photosynthesis, you can use this to measure the rate of photosynthesis. Which is affected by light and it's availability.
