Cytokinesis is a process that occurs at the end of mitosis or meiosis, being the final step of cell division. This mechanism allows the separation of the two daughter cells, with equal distribution of cytoplasm and formation of cell membrane, differentiating into two independent cells.

In the diagram it can be observed (step 7) that after the division process —in yellow— two arrows pointing to two cells are evident, which implies the process of cytokinesis.

Prior to the cytokinesis process, karyokinesis occurs, which is the separation of nuclei and formation of the nuclear membrane.

In animal cells, karyocinesis occurs by the effect of a ring of actin and myosin that helps to force the separation. In the plant cell, the fragmoplast is formed, a septum that induces the separation of the daughter cells.

The other options are not correct because:

Cell growth occurs in G1 phase.
Cell preparation occurs in interphase.
DNA replication occurs in S phase.
Mitosis is represented in yellow, and involves 4 phases.

What is the biodiversity score of farmland (maize)?

Karolina [17]

Answer:

<h3>Required Answer:-</h3>

The intensification of agriculture has caused dramatic declines in farmland biodiversity (Carvalheiro et al., 2013; Senapathi et al., 2015). Since the 1990s, agricultural policies have been developed in Europe to mitigate this loss through agri-environmental schemes (AES). One AES is “sown wildflower strips”, the aim of which is to create new ecological infrastructures by sowing attractive wild flowers on arable land (a few % of the cultivated area). These ecological infrastructures fall within our definition of MIMS since they represent a massive introduction of managed species in the landscape.
