In an animal cell centrosomes regulate cell division and centrosomes are not present in plant cells so what regulates celldivision in plant cells??

Solution

Dear student.
Centrosome is not absent in plant cells. Plant cells have centrosomes instead of centriole and play the similar roles in cell division i.e formation of spindle fibres as what centrioles play in cell division of animal cells. But centrosomes have relatively simpler organisation than centriole in animal cells.

Regards.
