Below is an image showing two of the steps a cell goes through during a phase of mitosis. Which of the following statements best identifies and describes this phase? SELECT ALL THAT APPLY Responses The cell is going through cytokinesis, because cell division is being completed. The cell is going through cytokinesis, because cell division is being completed. The cell is going through anaphase, because the two cells are pulling apart. The cell is going through anaphase, because the two cells are pulling apart. The cell is going through prophase, because the cells are coming together to reproduce The cell is going through prophase, because the cells are coming together to reproduce Cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm into two daughter cells.

Answer 1

To accurately identify and describe the phase of mitosis shown in the image you referenced, the following statements are correct:

1. The cell is going through cytokinesis, because cell division is being completed.
2. Cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm into two daughter cells.

The other two statements about anaphase and prophase are not correct in the context of cytokinesis. Anaphase involves the separation of chromosomes, and prophase is the stage where chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes and the nuclear envelope begins to break down.

So, the correct selections are:

• The cell is going through cytokinesis, because cell division is being completed.
• Cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm into two daughter cells.
