Genetically identical 1n somatic cells are the final result of the mitosis of a 1n somatic cell. Somatic comes from the Greek word soma, meaning body.
The number of chromosomes in a mature somatic cell depends on the species, but it is the diploid number (2X). In a human somatic cell, that number is 46.
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).
Somatic cell
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.
Any cell that is not a sex cell (sperm/egg). i.e. body cells, such as skin cells, stomach cells, liver cells
A somatic cell is a cell that reproduces by mitosis. Therefore, a somatic cell transfers its information (in the chromosomes) by producing two daughter cells.
Another name for body cells is somatic cells.
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is a laboratory technique where the nucleus of a somatic cell (e.g., skin cell) is transferred into an egg cell that has had its nucleus removed. This process creates a cloned embryo that can develop into an organism genetically identical to the somatic cell donor.
Somatic cell.
A somatic cell is part of the nervous system. (somatic also means body). This cell is a multicellular organsim.A somatic cell is also generally taken to mean any cell forming the body of an organism such as, internal organs skin, bones, blood and connective tissue are all made up of somatic cells.
A somatic cell donor clones things. So a cloner.
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.

Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is a cloning technique where the nucleus of a somatic cell (any cell in the body except for reproductive cells) is transferred into an egg cell that has had its nucleus removed. This creates an embryo that is genetically identical to the donor of the somatic cell.
