Cytokinesis usually follows mitosis. If a cell completed mitosis but not cytokinesis, the result would be:
A
A cell with a single large nucleus.
B
A cell with high concentrations of actin and myosin.
C
A cell with two abnormally small nuclei.
D
A cell with two completely identical nuclei.
E
A cell with two non-identical nuclei with half the amount of DNA.
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the process of mitosis: Mitosis is the division of a cell's nucleus into two identical nuclei, each with the same number of chromosomes as the original nucleus.
Learn about cytokinesis: Cytokinesis is the process that follows mitosis, involving the division of the cytoplasm to form two separate daughter cells.
Consider the scenario where cytokinesis does not occur: If a cell completes mitosis but does not undergo cytokinesis, the cell will have two nuclei within a single cell membrane.
Analyze the options: A cell with two completely identical nuclei is the expected result after mitosis, but without cytokinesis, these nuclei remain within one cell.
Conclude the implications: The cell will have two identical nuclei, but they will not be separated into distinct cells, resulting in a binucleated cell.
