Video transcript

Hi everyone here, we have a question telling us an animal cell psychokinesis. The acting micro filaments and moccasin form a blank at the center of the dividing cell. Spindle fiber is incorrect. Poll is incorrect. Cleavage furrow is correct and thick cell wall is incorrect and this is what a cleavage furrow looks like. So we have our cell trying to divide and we get this cleavage furrow right in the middle, so that is our cleavage furrow. And our answer is C cleavage furrow. Thank you for watching. Bye.
