A plant cell

Explanation:

In the given question, a stage of a cell has been described during cell division.

The characteristic of this cell division are:

1. Nuclei are formed at opposite poles - shows that it is the stage of cell division

2. The formation of cell plate - the cell plate is formed in the middle of the cell which indicates that the cell is a plant cell. This cell is a plant cell as the cell plate is formed only in the plant cells and not in the animal cell in which the contractile rings are formed.

Thus, A plant cell is correct.
