Solution

The correct option is B formed during cytokinesis in plant cells
The divison of cytoplasm is called cytokinesis which occurs after the karyokinesis.
In plant cells, cytokinesis occurs by the formation of cell plate. Cell plate is synthesised by a specialised structure called as phragmoplast. Phragmoplast consists of microtubules, actin filaments and other proteins.
