No
Germ cells are cells that become gametes (are n: have have the genetic material) and somatic cells are all the rest (2n)
Somatic cells are not involved in sexual reproduction. These are most of the cells in your body. Gametes are sex cells (sperm and ovules/eggs).
Somatic cells undergo mitosis.
Somatic cells (regular cells) and gametes (sex cells) all grow in number through mitosis (for somatic cells) and meiosis (for gametes)
Half of the amount of chromosomes as the cells in the body that are not gametes (called somatic cells) so 23 chromosomes (instead of 23 PAIRS of chromosomes).
In humans, cells that do not produce gametes are collectively called somatic cells. Somatic cells do not include sperm and ova, the cells from which they are made, and undifferentiated stem cells.
no. somatic cells are all cells of the body that are not gametes. meiosis only involves the production of gametes. not somatic cells

somatic cell
Somatic cells are not involved in sexual reproduction. These are most of the cells in your body. Gametes are sex cells (sperm and ovules/eggs).
Gametes only have one of each chromosome, whereas somatic cells have a pair.
no. only the cells in the gonads which are to become gametes undergo mitosis. blood cells, like all cells but gamete cells are called somatic and only divide by mitosis.
Somatic cells undergo mitosis.
Somatic cells make up the body cells, as opposed to the gametes, which are sex cells.
Meiosis forms haploid cells. This means that they have half the number of chromosomes as somatic (body) cells.
Somatic cells (regular cells) and gametes (sex cells) all grow in number through mitosis (for somatic cells) and meiosis (for gametes)
somatic cells divide by mitosis. gametes, and sexual cell differentiation take place through meiosis.
