The correct option is D Nucleus
Karyokinesis is division of the nucleus during cell cycle. It is the first step during the mitosis or meiosis of the cell cycle and results in the formation of two daughter nuclei which corresponds to separation of daughter chromosomes into these two nuclei. It is generally followed by cytokinesis which is nothing but the division of the cytoplasm to form two separate daughter cells immediately after mitosis. It results in separation of organelles, including the nuclei, into the two daughter cells. Karyokinesis is independent of cytokinesis; it can occur without being followed by cytokinesis. Cytokinesis cannot take place without karyokinesis i.e. it is dependent on karyokinesis. The correct answer is B.
