The division of the plasma membrane begins with a(n)____.
A)exocytosis reaction
B)cleavage furrow
C)membrane slice
D)membrane ridge
E)cleavage cycle

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cleavage furrow is the indentation that forms around the cell during cell division, which eventually leads to the separation of the daughter cells. This process occurs in animal cells, whereas plant cells undergo cytokinesis through the formation of a cell plate. Exocytosis refers to the process of molecules being secreted out of the cell through the fusion of vesicles with the plasma membrane. Membrane slice and membrane ridge are not commonly used terms in reference to cell division. Cleavage cycle is not the term used to describe the division of the plasma membrane.
