Cells Reproduce by Copying and Separating Their Genetic Information and Then

Multiple Choice

Cells reproduce by copying and separating their genetic information and then dividing. Because eukaryotes possess multiple chromosomes, mechanisms exist to ensure that each new cell receives one copy of each chromosome. Most eukaryotic cells are diploid, and their two chromosome sets can be arranged in homologous pairs. Haploid cells contain a single set of chromosomes.
