Flexi Says: When a cell divides, two daughter cells are produced from a single parent cell. During mitosis, the genetic material is divided equally between the two daughter cells (in most cases). The cytoplasm is then divided between the two daughter cells through cytokinesis. Most organelles do not replicate on their own, and are simply distributed between the two new cells. However, mitochondria and chloroplasts divide by binary fission and extra copies may be made leading up to cell division. The Golgi apparatus breaks down before mitosis and is reassembled in the daughter cells. During the process of cell division, there might be some changes in cytoplasm during mitosis like disappearing of Golgi apparatus, but these are normalized once cytokinesis occurs and the daughter cells are formed.
