Developmental Biology
Cytokinesis is the process where the cytoplasm of a parental cell divides to form two daughter cells, completing cell division. It is crucial for ensuring that each daughter cell receives an adequate amount of cellular components and organelles, and it typically follows mitosis or meiosis. This process is essential in both the formation of early embryonic structures and the production of gametes, affecting overall organism development and reproduction.
