Comparison between mitosis in plant cell and animal cell
Mitosis in plant cell and animal cell:
Major differences
Mitosis in plant cell | Mitosis in animal cell |
1. Centrioles are absent. | Centrioles are present. |
2. No aster formation. | Aster formation occurs. |
3. Cell plate is formed. | No cell plate is formed. |
4. No furrowing of cytoplasm at cytokinesis. | Furrowing of cytoplasm occurs. |
5. Occurs mainly in meristems. | Occurs in tissues throughout the body. |

Mitosis
Prophase Chromatin condenses to form chromosomes. Centrioles migrate to opposite poles of the cells (except in plant cells which do not have centrioles). Microtubules develop and form a star shaped structure known as an aster, and spindle fibres may develop....

The Cell Cycle
What are all of the stages to the Cell Cycle? The Cell Cycle starts with its first stage called Interphase. The cell will be in this stage the longest amount of time out of all of the stages of the cycle. During the first part of Interphase is called...
