Best Answer

Chromosomes and sister chromatids are joined strands of duplicated genetic material. A chromatid is one copy of a duplicated chromosome which, before replication, is composed of one DNA molecule.

How is genetic material organize in eukaryotic cells?

The genetic material of eukaryotic cells is organized in chromosomes.The genetic material of a cell contains information needed for the cells' growth and other activities. When a cell divides into 2 new cells, each new cell receives a full set of genetic material. The genetic material in cells is contained in DNA molecules. Source: "Cells and Heredity" (Biology book)


Why do chromosomes need to become 2 strands before the cell divides?

The second strand of a chromosome is a copy of the genetic information for that cell. There are 2 strands so that when the cell divides, there is one copy of each chromosome for each offspring cell.


How is gene inheritence different between sexual and asexual reproduction?

In sexually reproducing organisms the progeny receive 1/2 genetic material from the female and 1/2 genetic material from the male and this would insure some genetic variation aside from all the other genetic variation methods. In asexual reproduction the progeny inherit 100% of the genetic material and are, to an extent, closes of the progenitor organism.


Can you get identical triplets?

you wont know until the very end what you actually have the babies Answer: Your Sonographer will be able to tell you. I think it is based on how many sacs/ placenta's there are. If there are two they are not identical because they are from two separate eggs.

How do hidden viruses multiply?

1. A virus attaches to a bacterium. 2. The virus injects its genetic material. 3. The genetic material of the virus combines with the bacterium's genetic material. 4. The virus's genetic material detaches from the bacterium's genetic material and the bacterium produces the virus's proteins and genetic material. 5. New viruses assemble. 6. The bacterium bursts open, releasing new viruses.

What are the stages of binary fission in an amoeba?

Binary fission is asexual; the organism splits directly into two equal -sized offsprings,each with a copy of the parent's genetic material. Binary fission is a common type of reproduction in single-celled organisms. 1) Chromsome is replicated 2) The Chromsome Splits into Daughter Strands 3) Cytokinesis splits the Amoeba into two daughters. This process is the cytoplam concaving (pinching) together on the equatorial line 4) Two Amoebas with identical DNA
