Answer:

Cytokinesis is the part of the cell division process during which the cytoplasm of a single eukaryotic cell divides into two daughter cells. Cytoplasmic division begins during or after the late stages of nuclear division in mitosis and meiosis. 

During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm of the cell is divided in half, and the cell membrane grows to enclose each cell, forming two separate cells as a result. ... The end result of mitosis and cytokinesis is two genetically identical cells where only one cell existed before.

Cytokinesis takes place in four stages: initiation, contraction, membrane insertion and completion. The events occurring within these stages differ in animal and plant cells.

Thus, cytokinesis can be considered to occur in four stages—initiation, contraction, membrane insertion, and completion. The central problem for a cell undergoing cytokinesis is to ensure that it occurs at the right time and in the right place.

The cytokinesis is of two types, one that occurs in the plant cell is cell plate formation and the other in the animal cell is embryonic cleavage.
