Cytokinesis in animal cells starts at:
Correct answer: B. Late telophase
- A. Anaphase
- B. Late telophase
- C. Metaphase
- D. Prophase
Explanation
During late telophase the astral microtubules send signals to the equatorial region of the cell, where actin and myosin are activated which form contractile ring, followed by cleavage furrow, which deepens towards the center of the cell, dividing the parent cell into two daughter cells.

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.
