A somatic cell is any cell in the body or a plant and can therefore do anything, depending on where it is located. e.g. a muscle cell in an arm muscle contracts, an eye cell detects light etc. The only cells which are not somatic are the sex cells such as sperm, eggs (animals), pollen and ovum (plants).

What phase of the cell cycle does mitosis start?
Mitosis is a phase of the cell cycle. It occurs after the G2 phase.
In which phase of the cell cycle does the nucleus divide through a series of steps?
M phase of the cell cycle
Which phase of the cell cycle is the most variable in duration in different cell type?
The G phase of the cell cycle is most variable in length. It is also referred to as the G1 phase.
What is the longest phase of the entire cell cycle?
Interphase is the longest phase in the cell cycle lasting 18 of the 20 hour cycle. In mitotic cell division cycle,the longest phase is G1 phase which lasts for 10 hours,S phase is for 9 hours,G2 phase for 4 hours and shortest phase is M phase which lasts for 1 hour.
What phase of the cell cycle and cellular process occurs during that phase?
The phase of the cell cycle is 3, and the processes of bivfalvism, deuteronomy and capsicum occur during it.
What is metaphase a phase of?
It is a phase of the reproductive cycle of a cell. It is the part where the centrioles have separated and are drawing the chromosomes apart into two cell halves before they replicate the cell as a haploid or a diploid, depending on whether is a somatic cell or a sex cell.
What phase of the cell cycle does mitosis start?
Mitosis is a phase of the cell cycle. It occurs after the G2 phase.
What are the 7 stages in the cell cycle?
The 7 stages for somatic cells (non-sex cells) are the G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase (these make up interphase) and then prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase (these are mitosis).
Where does the checkpoint regulate in the cell cycle?
G1 phase, G2 phase of the cell cycle
What is the first phase of the cell cycle?
The first phase of the cell cell cycle is interphase, followed by pro-phase, meta-phase, telo-phase, and ending with ana-phase. Enjoy!
Which phase of cell cycle is shortest?
The shortest stage of the cell cycle is m-phase.
What is the busiest phase of cell cycle?
Interphase is the longest of the cell cycle. Interphase, the busiest phase of the cell cycle, is divided into three parts.
In which phase of the cell cycle does the nucleus divide through a series of steps?
M phase of the cell cycle
Which phase of the cell cycle is the most variable in duration in different cell type?
The G phase of the cell cycle is most variable in length. It is also referred to as the G1 phase.
What phase of the cell cycle are the types of brain cells?
The phase of the cell cycle that the type of brain cells are in is Metaphase.
Longest phase in cell cycle?
The G1 phase
What is the longest phase of the entire cell cycle?
Interphase is the longest phase in the cell cycle lasting 18 of the 20 hour cycle. In mitotic cell division cycle,the longest phase is G1 phase which lasts for 10 hours,S phase is for 9 hours,G2 phase for 4 hours and shortest phase is M phase which lasts for 1 hour.
