Phragmoplast is formed during:
Correct answer: D. Cytokinesis
- A. Metaphase
- B. Anaphase
- C. Telophase
- D. Cytokinesis
Explanation
Phragmoplast is formed during cytokinesis. This complex assembly of microtubules, actin filaments and associated molecules act as a framework for cell plate assembly and subsequent formation of the future cell wall, separating the two daughter cells.

About Animal and Plant Cell
Animal and plant cells share a plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, ribosomes, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum, but plant cells also have a cellulose cell wall, chloroplasts and a large permanent vacuole. Questions cover organelle structure and function, differences between the two cell types, and how membranes control movement of substances.
