However, the species found on Shikoku Island and Kii Peninsula are diploid with only two genome sets, suggesting an ancestral lineage. This discovery, reported in PLOS One, could shed light on the ...

(A) In mitosis, diploid cells replicate chromosomes during S phase and segregate sister chromatids during M phase, so that diploid daughter cells are produced. (B) In meiosis, two chromosome ...

Every chromosome in one set has a matching partner in the other set that has the same length of DNA and the same genes. Cells that contain two sets of chromosomes are said to be diploid.

Each chromatid is a full length DNA molecule. The stages outlined in the following example show a cell with a diploid chromosome number of four (two sets of two chromosomes) undergoing cell division.
