Somatic cells are not involved in sexual reproduction. These are most of the cells in your body. Gametes are sex cells (sperm and ovules/eggs).

Somatic cells undergo mitosis.


What do somatic cells form?

Somatic cells make up the body cells, as opposed to the gametes, which are sex cells.


Are Cells that become gametes are called somatic cell lines?

No, cells that become gametes are not called somatic cell lines. Somatic cell lines refer to normal body cells that are not involved in reproduction, while gametes are specialized reproductive cells (sperm and egg) that are involved in sexual reproduction.


Cells that do not produce gametes are called?

In humans, cells that do not produce gametes are collectively called somatic cells. Somatic cells do not include sperm and ova, the cells from which they are made, and undifferentiated stem cells.


Is somatic cells associated with meiosis?

Somatic cells are not associated with meiosis. Meiosis only occurs in specialized cells called germ cells, which are responsible for producing eggs or sperm in organisms undergoing sexual reproduction. Somatic cells, on the other hand, undergo mitosis for growth and repair in multicellular organisms.


Do somatic cell or gametes divide by mitosis?

somatic cells divide by mitosis. gametes, and sexual cell differentiation take place through meiosis.


What are somatic cell and germ cell?

Germ cells are cells that become gametes (are n: have have the genetic material) and somatic cells are all the rest (2n)


If somatic cell has 30 chromosomes how many are in the gametes?

If a somatic cell has 30 chromosomes, then the gametes produced by that cell would contain 15 chromosomes. Gametes, like sperm and egg cells, are haploid cells containing half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells, which are diploid.


What cells in the body are not diploid cells?

In humans, all the somatic cells (body cells) are diploid. However, gametes (sex cells) such as sperm and egg cells are haploid. Gametes have half the amount of genetic material than which is found in somatic cells. These are the only human cells which are not diploid.


How do diploid somatic cells and haploid gametes organism reproduce?
