Progeny example sentences

Since the number of chromosomes in the parent and progeny cells is the same, it is also called as equational division.Here, both the progeny cells following mitotic cell division retain the ability to divide and continue to do so.These newly formed daughter cells can themselves grow and divide, giving rise to a new cell population that is formed by the growth and division of a single parental cell and its progeny.All these processes, i.e., cell division, DNA replication, and cell growth, hence, have to take place in a coordinated way to ensure correct division and formation of progeny cells containing intact genomes.
