Cytokinesis refers to the division of the cytoplasm in a cell. Cytokinesis usually occurs after a cell has undergone nuclear division as part of mitosis or meiosis.

Definition of cytokinesis :
The division of the cytoplasm of a cell into two daughter cells and it occurs during Telophase. See karyokinesis.

Mitosis without cytokinesis produces a mass of cytoplasm with many nuclei. Some examples:
the free-nuclei stage in the embryonic development of flies like Drosophila [View]
the plasmodial slime molds like Physarum polycephalum [Link]

Cytokinesis is the process where one cell splits off from its sister cell. It usually occurs after cell division. The Cell Cycle is the sequence of growth, DNA replication, growth and cell division that all cells go through.

Cytokinesis (division of the cytoplasm) begins in anaphase. A cleavage furrow forms as actin filaments underneath the plasma membrane constrict in a band called the contractile ring. Two cells will be produced as this process continues.

cytokinesis: the process during mitosis in which the cytoplasm divides into two separate cells; also called cytoplasmic division.
cytoplasm: semiliquid substance that composes the foundation of the cell and contains the organelles.

Each stem cell divides to form a cystoblast and another stem cell; the cystoblast undergoes four synchronized divisions with incomplete cytokinesis to form a cyst of 16 interconnected cells.

Non-eukaryotic cells such as bacterial cells reproduce by binary fission, a process that includes DNA replication, chromosome segregation, and cytokinesis. Eukaryotic cell reproduction either involves mitosis or a more complex process called meiosis.
