Solution

The correct option is B

Mitosis and cytokinesis


Mitosis and Cytokinesis together constitute the M phase of cell division or the Mitotic phase. Mitosis is the division of the nucleus. It can also be called as Karyokinesis. Mitosis is further broken down into Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase.

Cytokinesis is the physical division of the cytoplasm.
