The genetic material inherited in an organelle, such as a mitochondrion or a chloroplast, exhibits Extranuclear inheritance.

When DNA in cytoplasmic organelles is handed on to offspring, extranuclear inheritance occurs. Cytoplasm can be found in both sperm and ovum cells in humans. Most of the extranuclear DNA formed when the sperm and ovum combine belongs to the mother. The organelles in the fertilized cell expand and divide as the fertilized egg grows. As a result, each new cell receives mtDNA, which likewise divides and is passed on. As a result, each child inherits mtDNA from the mother. The identical procedure takes place in creatures with cells that contain chloroplasts.

Nuclear DNA differs greatly from extranuclear inheritance in several ways.

  1. Chloroplasts and mitochondria both store several copies of DNA. Additionally, the cytoplasm of every cell contains a number of each organelle, occasionally thousands.
  2. In a cell's cytoplasm, chloroplasts and mitochondria are dispersed at random. There is a random distribution of amount in both daughter cells after cell division, whether it be through mitosis or meiosis.

Why did sumerians need to trade
Zepler [3.9K]
As any other ancient civilization, the Sumerians were traders as well. And they had a few good reasons to do this. 

Because they traded, their trading partners were less likely to attack them, because it would hurt their economy as well. Furthermore, they didn't produce everything they needed and traded those goods with goods which they produced too much of. 

And lastly, through trade they could also get exotic goods which they would have never gotten otherwise.
