Multiple Choice
Two scientists are discussing mitosis in plant cells. Scientist one states that plant cells undergo cleavage in a manner similar to animal cells, whilst scientist two other argues that instead they form a cell plate. Which scientist is correct and why?
A) Scientist one, as all eukaryotic cells undergo mitosis in an essentially identical manner.
B) Scientist two, as animal cells do not undergo cleavage because of their cell wall.
C) Scientist one, as even though there are some distinct differences in the process of mitosis in animal and plant cells, cleavage is shared by both.
D) Scientist two, but the context given for the cell plate is irrelevant to mitosis.
E) Both scientists are incorrect; plant cells divide by the action of vesicles deposited by the tonoplast.
