haploid
1. Chromosomes contain the genetic material that is transmitted from parent to
offspring and from cell to cell.
mitochondria
genetic material
2. Chromosomes are replicated and passed along, generation after generation, from
parent to offspring. They are also passed from cell to cell during the
of a multicellular organism. Each type of chromosome retains its individuality during
cell division and gamete formation.

3. The nuclei of most eukaryotic cells contain chromosomes that are found in
homologous pairs-they are
from each parent. At meiosis, one of the two members of each pair segregates into
one daughter nucleus, and the homolog segregates into the other daughter nucleus.
