In plant cytokinesis, cells are divided by the formation of a cell plate in the middle of the mother cell whereas, in animal cytokinesis,cells are divided by the formation of a cleavage furrow on both sides of the mother cell. similarly,cell wall formation does not occur during animal cytokinesis while cell walls form during plant cytokinesis.

1. Mitosis is responsible for the development of the zygote into an adult.
2. Equal distribution of chromosomes to each daughter cell.
3. It is responsible for the growth and development of an individual.
4. It maintains the constant number of chromosomes in all body cells of an organism.
   

The three processes during interphase are

• In the interphase, proteins are synthesized by the cells needed for mitosis.
• The cell’s DNA is replicated so that each chromosome has two molecules of DNA.
  
• More proteins are synthesized and organelles like mitochondria grow and divide.
  

Meiosis is called reduction division because the number of chromosomes in daughter cells is reduced to half that of the parent cell whereasMitosis is called equational division because the number of chromosomes and amount of DNA in daughter cells remains equal to parent cells.

In the metaphase of mitosis, single chromosomes with two chromatids each, line up on the metaphase plate whereas in metaphase I of meiosis, paired chromosomes (bivalents) with four chromatids in each pair line up. In the metaphase of mitosis, each centromere possesses two kinetochores on both lateral sides, whereas in metaphase I of meiosis, the centromere possesses only one kinetochore on the side facing the pole.

Zygotene is the stage of prophase I where synapsis begins with a synaptonemal complex forming between homologous chromosomes whereas pachytene is the stage of prophase where crossing over of genetic material occurs between non-sister chromatids.

In animals mitosis occurs in somatic cells andin plants mitosis occurs in all except those which produce spores by meiosis.

Synaptonemal complex is formed in the zygotene stage during prophase I of meiosis I.

Mitosis is the process of cell division wherein the chromosomes replicate and get equally distributed into two daughter cells. Mitosis is called equational division because each of the two daughter cells formed, gets the same number of chromosomes as the parent.

Interkinesis is a period of rest that cells of some species enter during meiosis between meiosis I and meiosis II. Preparation of the second meiotic division occurs during interkinesis and no DNA replication occurs during Interkinesis

A kinetochore is a disc-shaped protein structure that forms on a chromatid during cell division and is associated with duplicated chromatids in eukaryotic cells.

The cell division concerned with cancer is Mitosis cell division.
