Somatic cells are the cells that form the body like skin, blood and bones. These type of cells go through the cell division process called mitosis. Gametes, or germline cells, like sperm and ova go a different cell division process called meiosis.

Is meiosis the cell division in eukaryotes that produce somatic cells?

No, meiosis is the cell division that produces sex cells. Mitosis is the cell division in eukaryotes that produce somatic cells.


In eukaryotes the process of cell division is called mitosis?

Somatic, or body cells


Process of cell division which results in the production of sex cells?

It is a nucleic acid and is made from building blocks called nucleotides. The process then repeats in what is called the cell cycle. Cell division (NIH image) Mitosis is how somatic--or non-reproductive cells--divide. Somatic cells.

What type of cell undergoes mitosis?

Mitosis is the form of cell division that most eukaryotic cells undergo. In humans, all somatic (non-sex) cells use mitosis to divide. Sex-cells use meiosis instead of mitosis.


How many cells are formed after cell division?

When body cells (somatic) undergo cell division (mitosis) It creates a duplicate cell. So for every cell undergoing cellular division, one new cell plus will be formed and the original will remain.


What type of cell division results in cells that are genetically identical?

Daughter cells are identical to their parent cells in mitosis. During this form of cell division, somatic cells separate into two identical daughter cells.


In what process does cell division produce germ cells?

So far as nuclear division is concerned, in somatic cells it is mitotic whereas in germ cells it is meiotic.


How does one somatic cell compare to the other somatic cells of an individual organism?

== == Somatic cells are body cells that contain 46 chromosomes and reproduce very rapidly. Reproductive cells are sex cells(sperm and egg)(dont rproduce as fast as somatic cells)and they contain 23 chromosomes.
