Specifically, this method of cell division is seen in:
* Animal cells: Cleavage furrow formation is the hallmark of cytokinesis in animals.
* Some protists: Certain single-celled eukaryotic organisms also use cleavage furrow during cell division.
Why not other organisms?
* Bacteria: Bacteria divide by binary fission, a process where the cell wall grows inwards to separate the two daughter cells.
* Plants: Plants utilize a cell plate formation, where vesicles from the Golgi apparatus fuse at the center of the cell, creating a new cell wall.
Let me know if you would like more details about the process of cleavage furrow formation!
