Document Summary

Distribution of genetic material equally and exactly to daughter cells. Chromosomes are composed of dna, rna and protein. In eukaryotes, chromosomes are contained within a membrane-bounded nucleus; in prokaryotes they are not. Haploid eukaryotic cells possess one copy of each chromosome (c); diploid cells possess two copies (2c) Prokaryotic cells divide by binary fission; eukaryotic cells divide by mitosis (separation of duplicated chromosomes into daughter cells) and cytokinesis (physical separation of the two daughter cells) Each duplicated chromosome is composed of identical sister chromatids. Cell division involves duplication of the chromosomes and partitioning the contents of the mother cell more or less equally into each daughter cell. Involves duplication of the entire set of chromosomes in the nucleus. One copy of each being distributed exactly to each daughter cell. All organelles must be distributed to daughter cells in approximate balance. Cell division proceeds through a set of stages called cell cycle. C- haploid amount of dna in the genome.
