What else can I help you with?
Which substance is responsible for determining which cell or cells will eventually become cloned?
The nucleus of a cell contains genetic material that determines which cells will be cloned. It contains instructions for cell differentiation and replication through processes like mitosis in somatic cells or somatic cell nuclear transfer in cloning. By manipulating the genetic material in the nucleus, scientists can direct which cells will become cloned.
Body cells can be called?
Somatic cell.
How many chromosomes have non somatic cell?
Non-somatic cells, such as germ cells (sperm and egg cells), have half the number of chromosomes compared to somatic cells. In humans, somatic cells have 46 chromosomes, while germ cells have 23 chromosomes.
Is telomerase active in somatic cells?
No, telomerase is typically not active in somatic cells.
Is somatic cells associated with meiosis?
Somatic cells are not associated with meiosis. Meiosis only occurs in specialized cells called germ cells, which are responsible for producing eggs or sperm in organisms undergoing sexual reproduction. Somatic cells, on the other hand, undergo mitosis for growth and repair in multicellular organisms.
Which process produces cloned cells?
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is a process that produces cloned cells. In SCNT, the nucleus of a somatic cell is transferred into an egg cell that has had its nucleus removed, resulting in a cloned cell with the same genetic information as the somatic cell.

If mutation occurs in somatic cells could the change be passed on by the mutant to its offspring?
Not with natural reproduction. If you cloned the parent that had the somatic mutation, you could pass it on to the offspring if you used the nucleus from the cell that had the somatic mutation.
Where are somatic cells found in organisms?
Somatic cells are any of the cells that are found in plants or animals other than the reproductive cell or gamete cell. In mammals the somatic cells are found in the skin, bones, blood, connective tissue. In plants they are found in stems, leaves, roots, branches.
How is the dermis formed?
The division of the somatic cells (epithelial cells) in animal tissues/collenchyma cells in plants.
Body cells can be called?
Somatic cell.
What is another name for normal body cells?
Another name for body cells is somatic cells.
Somatic embryogenesis in plant tissue culture?
Somatic embryogenesis entails regeneration of embryos or plants from somatic cells. This process is utilized in plant tissue culture to regenerate plants using culture media. The culture media is rich in all nutrients necessary for plant growth. In banana tissue culture, plantlets are regenerated from initiated tissue cultured on Murashige and Skoog media.
Which pairs of cells do not have identical chromosomes numbers in a given species of plants?
In plants, the gametes (such as pollen and egg cells) have half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells. This means that the pairs of cells that do not have identical chromosome numbers in a plant species are the gametes and somatic cells. Gametes have half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells due to the process of meiosis that reduces the chromosome number by half during gamete formation.
How is the cloning of genes different from the cloning mammals?
The difference between cloning genes and cloning a mammal is that when a gene is cloned, it is typically removed from a DNA sequence and inserted into an organism. The cloning of a mammal, however, is when a somatic cells from the mammal are cloned to produce a "copy" of the mammal.
Do gametes come from germ cells of somatic cells?
somatic cell
Transgenic cloned sheep were used to produce what medical protein?
The transgene that was inserted in the donor somatic cells was designed to express human clotting factor IX protein in the milk of sheep.
