A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of the mitochondrial nucleoid that contributes to mitochondrial division. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of an organelle within a cell. An organelle is an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton. Excludes the plasma membrane. The directed movement of mitochondria to the correct region of the cell that contributes to the process of mitochondrial fission. The directed movement of a protein to a specific location in the mitochondrial membrane that contributes to mitochondrial fission. The division of a mitochondrion within a cell to form two or more separate mitochondrial compartments. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the separation of a single continuous mitochondrial membrane into two membranes and contributes to mitochondrial fission. The creation of two or more organelles by division of one organelle. Any process that increases the rate, frequency or extent of mitochondrial fission. Mitochondrial fission is the division of a mitochondrion within a cell to form two or more separate mitochondrial compartments. The change in the morphology of the mitochondria in an apoptotic cell from a highly branched network to a fragmented vesicular form. Any process that modulates the rate, frequency or extent of mitochondrial fission. Mitochondrial fission is the division of a mitochondrion within a cell to form two or more separate mitochondrial compartments. The process by which the anatomical structures of a cell part are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. Any process that decreases the rate, frequency or extent of mitochondrial fission. Mitochondrial fission is the division of a mitochondrion within a cell to form two or more separate mitochondrial compartments. The process by which genetic material of the mitochondrion, in the form of the mitochondrial chromosome, is organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two or more sets. The process by which the anatomical structures of a mitochondrion are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a mitochondrion; includes mitochondrial morphogenesis and distribution, and replication of the mitochondrial genome as well as synthesis of new mitochondrial components.
