There is no specific relationship between them.
Somatic cells are cells that form the body (or body cells). The contain diploid (2n) number of chromosomes. They divide by mitosis
gametes are also called germ cells or sex cells. They contain haploid (n) number of chromosomes. They do not divide by themselves. They are produced from the primary gametocyte which undergoes a two-stage division process called meiosis
A mosquito is a somatic cell, not a gamete. Somatic cells make up the body of an organism, while gametes are reproductive cells involved in sexual reproduction.
The diploid cell type is the somatic cell. Gametes, such as ovum, are haploid cells that are produced by the process of meiosis from diploid germ cells.
If the mutation occurs in a somatic cell and the cell is still able to reproduce, the mutation continues in the daughter cells in following generations. If a mutation occurs in a gamete, the original organism remains unchanged. If that gamete is used for reproduction, then the mutation will continue in the offspring.
Since only gamete cells actually participate in the creation of a new organism, it is only the mutations in gamete cells which are inheritable; mutations in somatic cells are not inheritable.
It varies from organism to organism. Humans have 23 chromosomes in a haploid (gamate) cell.
No a muscle cell is a somatic cell
A mosquito is a somatic cell, not a gamete. Somatic cells make up the body of an organism, while gametes are reproductive cells involved in sexual reproduction.
A mutation can be classified by the somatic cell or the gamete cells.
In a gamete (sex) cell, there are 23 chromosomes. A gamete is a haploid, or n, whereas a somatic (normal) cell is a diploid, or 2n, and has 46 chromosomes.
The diploid cell type is the somatic cell. Gametes, such as ovum, are haploid cells that are produced by the process of meiosis from diploid germ cells.
If the mutation occurs in a somatic cell and the cell is still able to reproduce, the mutation continues in the daughter cells in following generations. If a mutation occurs in a gamete, the original organism remains unchanged. If that gamete is used for reproduction, then the mutation will continue in the offspring.
That type of division is done by a gamete (sex cell). mitosis is performed in a somatic (non-reproductive) cell.
Since only gamete cells actually participate in the creation of a new organism, it is only the mutations in gamete cells which are inheritable; mutations in somatic cells are not inheritable.
They have half the number of the somatic (parent) cell. So if a parent cell had 46 chromosomes in its nucleus, then its gamete would have 23(one chromosome from each pair).
Gametes are haploid cells, this means that they contain half the amount of chromosomes that a somatic cell contains. A normal somatic cell contains 46 chromosomes, while a haploid cell contains 23.
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).
gamete cell (eggs are gametes too)germ cells (so are egg cells)"little swimmers"seedsemen (actually semen contains sperm)
