What is the name of the process that cells use to divide?
Mitosis is the process that produces new 2N cells from 2N cells Meiosis is the process that produces 1N reproductive cells.
Are gamete cells mutations and somatic cells mutations inheritable?
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.
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.
How is aging related to mitosis?
Mitosis is a form of cell division. Cancer is a mutation in cell division, generally in such a way that cell divide too often and are unregulated and end up developing a mass. Those cells also carry the mutation and those cells divide and create new mutated cells, on and on and on.
What is the difference between somatic and gametic cells?
a germline mutation is one the was passed on to offspring because the egg or sperm cell was mutated. a somatic mutation is a mutation of the somatic cells (all cells except sex cells) that cannot be passed on to offspring.
What type of cells does mitosis create?
Mitosis produce somatic cells,In the sense that it produces cells in the body. However, mitosis does not complete the cell multiplying process. It is the second stage.
What is the name of the process that cells use to divide?
Mitosis is the process that produces new 2N cells from 2N cells Meiosis is the process that produces 1N reproductive cells.
What is the difference the difference between mitosis and meiosis?
Mitosis produces 2 diploid cells and Meiosis produces 4 haploid cells and Mitosis involves 1 division while meiosis involes 2 divisoinsMitosis takes place within somatic cells (cells that make up the body), while meiosis takes place within gamete cells (sex cells). As such, meiosis produces more gamete cells, and mitosis produces somatic cells. Mitosis is the process which is responsible for replacing dead or wounded skin cells. Mitosis divides a single somatic cell into two daughter cells, while gametes are produced in fours; more specifically, one single cell produces four daughter cells.Mitosis the reproduction of body cells. After going through Mitosis, the new daughter cells will have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cells. Meiosis is the reproduction of reproductive/sex cells. After completing the process, the daughter cells have 1/2 the number of chromosomes as the parent cells.For example:Mitosis: Body cells begin with 46 chromosomes. The new daughter cells will have the same amount.Meiosis: Reproductive cell X (X being a variable) has 46 chromosomes. After completing meiosis, the daughter cells will have 23 chromosomes.

Why is mitosis used in an animal body?
Since cells die, new cells must be created. Mitosis is used to create new body cells (somatic).
Are gamete cells mutations and somatic cells mutations inheritable?
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.
How many new cells do body cells produce when they divide?
From one parent somatic cell, two daughter cells are created.
The process of what produces a new copy of an organism's genetic information?
The process that makes a new copy of an organism's genetic information and then passes it on to new cells is called mitosis.
What is somatic variation?
Mutations that occur in the somatic cells are called somatic variations .New mutations occur twice as frequently in sperm as in eggs(germ cells), probably because so many more cell divisions are required to make sperm than eggs.
How many cells are made during Meiosis?
In the process of meiosis the cells divide twice. When it is all done the resulting amount is 4 new cells!
Somatic embryogenesis is illustrated when cells from a fragmented sponge recombine to form new sponges?
True.
What produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the origianal cells?
I believe it is Meiosis that produces new cells with each having half as many chromosomes as the original parent cells.
