Somatic traits refer to physical characteristics or features of an organism that arise from its genetic makeup and environmental influences. These traits can include aspects such as body structure, size, color, and other observable features. In the context of genetics, somatic traits are often contrasted with inherited traits, which are passed down from one generation to the next. Overall, somatic traits contribute to the overall phenotype of an individual.

Only changes in germ cells, which are the reproductive cells (sperm and eggs), can be passed on to offspring. Somatic cell changes, occurring in non-reproductive cells, do not affect the genetic material transmitted to the next generation. Therefore, while mutations or adaptations in somatic cells may impact an individual's health or traits, they are not inherited by offspring. In contrast, germline mutations can lead to hereditary traits in subsequent generations.
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.
Another name for body cells is somatic cells.
After mitosis, each somatic cell will produce two identical daughter cells. Therefore, if an organism has 24 somatic cells before mitosis, there will be a total of 48 somatic cells after mitosis.
Sex-linked traits and epistasis. Mendel only worked with single-allele traits on somatic chromosomes (autosomes).
