Chapter 10, Problem 6A

In animal cells, cytokinesis is accomplished by a contractile ring containing actin. The related process in bacteria is

a. chromosome segregation, which also appears to use an actinlike protein.

b. septation via a ring of FtsZ protein, which is an actinlike protein.

c. cytokinesis, which requires formation of a cell plate via vesicular fusion.

d. septation via a ring of FtsZ protein, which is a tubulin-like protein.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Which of the following are stages in the cytokinesis of animal cells? Select all that apply. A) The cell plate expands along the plane of division, and when the plate fuses with the plasma membrane, the cytoplasm is partitioned into two new cells. B) After telophase, the contractile ring constricts the plasma membrane and forms a cleavage furrow. C) The contractile ring reaches its smallest diameter, and the spindle microtubules are cut as vesicles form the new membranes that separate the two new cells. D) A contractile ring of microfilaments and motor proteins forms under the plasma membrane during anaphase.Assessment question
