Statement I: | In animal cells, cytokinesis is achieved by the appearance of a furrow in the plasma membrane. |
Statement II: | During cytokinesis in plant cells, the formation of the new cell wall begins with the formation of a simple precursor called the cell plate that represents the middle lamella between the walls of the two adjacent cells. |
Statement I: | In animals, mitotic cell division is only seen in the diploid somatic cells. |
Statement II: | Plants can show mitotic divisions in both haploid and diploid cells. |
Statement I: | If the initial number of chromosomes in a cell at G1 phase is 2N and DNA content is 2C, the number of chromosomes and the content of DNA at the end of the S-phase will be 4N and 4C. |
Statement II: | The cell replicates its DNA and doubles its number of chromosomes during the S-phase of the cell cycle. |

1. | Metaphase I | Bivalent alignment on the equatorial plate |
2. | Anaphase I | Splitting of centromere |
3. | Prophase II | Nuclear membrane disappears by the end |
4. | Metaphase II | Microtubules from the opposite poles of the spindle get attached to the kinetochores of sister chromatids |
Assertion (A): | Cell division is a very important process in all living organisms. |
Reason (R): | During the division of a cell, DNA replication and cell growth also take place. |
