Mitochondrial Inheritance Summary
484 words, approx. 2 pages
Mitochondrial inheritance is the study of how mitochondrial genes are inherited. Mitochondria are cellular organelles that contain their own DNA and RNA, allowing them to grow and replicate independent of the cell. Each cell has 10,000 mitochondria...
