Here's a breakdown:
* Animal cells: During cytokinesis, the cell membrane pinches inwards, forming a cleavage furrow that eventually divides the cell into two daughter cells.
* Plant cells: Plant cells have a rigid cell wall, so they can't pinch inwards like animal cells. Instead, they form a cell plate in the middle of the parent cell. This cell plate grows outwards, eventually fusing with the existing cell wall to form a new cell wall that separates the two daughter cells.
