Multiple mitoses followed by a single cytokinetic event is known as
A) meiosis.
B) schizogony.
C) coenocytic division.
D) encystment.
E) interphase.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Schizogony is a type of cell division in which multiple rounds of mitosis occur without cytokinesis, resulting in a multinucleated cell called a schizont. The schizont then undergoes a single cytokinetic event, dividing into multiple individual cells, each with a single nucleus. Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of gametes. Coenocytic division is a type of cell division in which the nuclei divide, but the cytoplasm does not, resulting in a multinucleated cell. Encystment is the process of forming a cyst, a protective structure that helps some organisms survive unfavorable conditions. Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle between cell divisions.
