What physical features can you see in plant cells undergoing cytokinesis and what differences would you expect to see if you observed animal cells instead?

cytokinesis involves the cleavage furrow in animal cells, which is a pinching of the cell membrane which evetually pinches the cell in two. It also involves the reformation of the nuclear membranes and the uncondensing of chromosomes.
In plant cells, rather than a cleavage furrow, you would see a cell plate grow, which is a cell wall the splits the cells in two.
