(N/A) $\Rightarrow$ In an animal cell,cytokinesis is achieved by the appearance of a cleavage furrow in the plasma membrane.
$\Rightarrow$ This furrow gradually deepens and ultimately joins in the center,dividing the cell cytoplasm into two distinct daughter cells.
$\Rightarrow$ In contrast,plant cells are enclosed by a relatively inextensible cell wall,which prevents the formation of a furrow.
$\Rightarrow$ Therefore,plant cells undergo cytokinesis through the formation of a cell plate.
