EXPLAIN WHY ANIMAL CELLS CHANGE THEIR SHAPE DURING MITOSIs? WHAT HAPPENS TO IT DURING MITOSIS?

Answer 1

they don't have a specific-rigid cell structure, that's why they change shape although cytoskeleton tries to keep cell's shape same before mitosis, during mitosis cytoskeleton falls down and can not funtion any more fully.

Answer 2

Animal cells usually elongate during mitosis, getting ready to divide into two daughter cells. It gives more room to separate the chromosomes into two distinct nuclei.

The cell manages this elongation by the ratcheting action of the cytoskeleton.

During cytokinesis the cell changes shape again, pinching in along the cleavage furrow until it is completely pinched into two daughter cells.
