While most cell biologists consider the term organelle to be synonymous with "cell compartment," other cell biologists choose to limit the term organelle to include only those that are DNA-containing, having originated from formerly-autonomous microscopic organisms acquired via endosymbiosis.

An endosymbiont is any organism that lives within the body or cells of another organism

What organelles are not shared by plant and animal cells?

As a result of mitosis all daughter cells are identical and so all organelles are replicated and so divided into daughter cells. The same is true of meiosis, though some organelles are lost in the sperm cell during embryogenesis


When is cytokinesis complete?

It is complete when two daughter cells are produced. Cytokinesis is the process in which the cytoplasm of a single cell divides to form two daughter cells.


Why is it necessary for the organelles to double during interphase?

Interphase precedes prophase and metaphase. Metapase is associated with cell growth and division. When cells divide, there should be enough organelles and genetic material to support both the daughter cells formed. Therefore, it is essential the organelles double so as to divide equally into the daughter cells.


In what ways are the new cells daughter cells which result from a cell cycle similar?

The new daughter cells resulting from the cell cycle inherit the genetic material (DNA) from the parent cell. They also have similar organelles and cellular structures that enable them to carry out their specific functions. Additionally, both daughter cells are initially identical and have the same cellular composition as the parent cell.


Do the mother and daughter cells compare?

Mother and daughter cells are related through the process of cell division. The mother cell divides to produce the daughter cells, which are genetically identical to each other and to the mother cell. They can be compared in terms of their genetic information and functional capabilities.

What happens in cytokinesis?

The cell divides into two daughter cells, and each daughter cell gets an equal amount of organelles.

How do the daughter cells produce by mitosis compare to the original cells?

Pretty much the same save possible replication errors and uneven distribution of organelles.


Where are organelles in cells?

Organelles are found in the cytoplasm of cells.

Eukaryotic cells have organelles.

What are animals that use organelles called?

Animal cells use organelles (so do plant cells). Cells with organelles are called "eukaryotic" which means these are cells that have a nucleus (which is one of the organelles).

Plant cells and animal cells contain organelles?

yes animal cells and plant cells do have organelles


Do bacteria have organelles within their cells?

Yes, bacteria do not have organelles within their cells. They are prokaryotic cells, which means they lack membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells.
