The process of dividing the cytoplasm of a parent cell where a structure forms in the cytoplasm and grows until reaching the plasma membrane, thereby completely separating the cytoplasms of adjacent progeny cells. An example of this is found in Arabidopsis thaliana. Cytokinesis that occurs in the context of cell cycle progression and result in the division of the cytoplasm of a cell and its separation into two daughter cells. The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a cellular component. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures containing both actin and myosin. The myosin may be organized into filaments. A cellular process that is involved in the division of the cytoplasm of a cell and its separation into two daughter cells. The formation of a structure composed of actin, myosin, and associated proteins that will function in cytokinesis in cells that perform cytokinesis by cell plate formation. The structure usually contains antiparallel microtubules and membrane (often visible as vesicles). The assembly and arrangement of an apparatus composed of actin, myosin, and associated proteins that will function in cytokinesis.
