karyokinesis

The relatively brief M phase consists of nuclear division (karyokinesis).

This generally happens when cytokinesis starts occurring while karyokinesis is still under the process.

Cells divide by processes known as karyokinesis and cytokinesis.

The processes of karyokinesis (mitosis) and cytokinesis work together to result in cleavage.

During karyokinesis and cytokinesis, the cell wall remains intact until the mastigotes escape the mother cell.

During asexual propagation (sometimes referred to as mitotic or vegetative growth), cells undergo a diel cycle of karyokinesis (chromosome/nuclear division) in darkness.

The fourth phase, M phase, consists of nuclear division (karyokinesis) and cytoplasmic division (cytokinesis), accompanied by the formation of a new cell membrane.

In early Drosophila development, the first 13 passes through mitosis are nuclear divisions (karyokinesis) without cytokinesis, resulting in a multinucleate cell (generally referred to as a syncytium, but stricly a coenocyte).

Meiosis is divided into meiosis I and meiosis II which are further divided into Karyokinesis I and Cytokinesis I & Karyokinesis II and Cytokinesis II respectively.

Leduc believed that it is necessary to appreciate biological processes from a physical perspective and constructed models from physics and chemistry to try to explain development and growth; these would typically involve ingenious combinations of chemicals to produce systems which mimicked the appearance of living processes such as karyokinesis and "remakable fungus-like forms".
