Short Answer is: twice the number of Chromosomes as found in the gametic [Haploid] Cells.


How do chromosomes transmit from cell to cell in the somatic cell?

A somatic cell is a cell that reproduces by mitosis. Therefore, a somatic cell transfers its information (in the chromosomes) by producing two daughter cells.

How many chromosomes are in a mature somatic cell?

The number of chromosomes in a mature somatic cell depends on the species, but it is the diploid number (2X). In a human somatic cell, that number is 46.

Explain the difference in the number of chromosomes between a frog somatic cell and a frog egg cell?

A frog somatic cell typically has a diploid number of chromosomes, which is twice the haploid number. This means it has two sets of chromosomes. On the other hand, a frog egg cell is haploid, meaning it only has one set of chromosomes. In frogs, both the somatic cell (2n) and the egg cell (n) have 26 chromosomes.


How many chromosomes are in a mature sex cell?

A sex cell contains half the number of chromosomes found in a somatic (normal) cell. Therefore a human sex cell would contain 23 chromosomes.

Is the result of a human cell division two offspring nuclei each containing 23 chromosomes?

Broadly speaking, yes. It should be pointed out, however, that mature red blood cells are somatic cells which contain no chromosomes at all. Also, osteoclasts are somatic cells which contain multiple nuclei and thus multiple pairs of homologous chromosomes (although they only have 23 homologous chromosomes in any given nucleus).
