How many chromosomes does a somatic -diploid- corn Cell have?

Short Answer is: twice the number of Chromosomes as found in the gametic [Haploid] Cells.


2n chromosome number in somatic cells?

The term "2n" refers to the diploid chromosome number found in somatic cells, meaning these cells contain two complete sets of chromosomes—one set inherited from each parent. In humans, for example, the diploid number is 46 chromosomes (2n = 46). Somatic cells, which make up most of the body's tissues and organs, undergo mitosis for growth and repair, maintaining this diploid chromosome number. This ensures genetic stability during cell division.


How many chromosomes are in a mature somatic cell?

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.


What are haploid and diploid cells?

Somatic (body) cells are diploid. Sex cells (gametes) are haploid.


If a cell has 25 chromosomes is it a somatic cell or a diploid cell?

you cannot say if a cell is somatic or germ cell by seeing the number of chromosomes present in it. If a cell has one pair of each chromosome then it is reffered to as diploid. haploid is represented by 'n' whereas Diploid-2n Triploid-3n and so on. A somatic cell is the cell which is present in your body. A germ cell is the cell present in your Gonads(gonads are reproductive organs) such as testis and ovaries.they have the x and y chromosomes. so if a cell has 25 chromosomes, it might be a somatic or germ cell. it's ploidy can be haploid or diploid. this can be known only by obtaining a karyotype. a karyotype is the diagramatic representation of the chromosomes by detailed analysis. if this cell is diploid, it means that it is missing one of its chromosome. because diploid is 2n.

Are somatic cells haploid or diploid?

Somatic cells are diploid, meaning they have two sets of chromosomes.


What cell type is diploid sex cell or ovum or gamete or somatic cell?

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.

Gametes Are haploid while somatic cells Are diploid. What is the difference between a haploid cell And a diploid cell?

Haploid cell is just a term meaning a cell has only one set of chromosomes. Diploid is a term used for an organism or cell having double the basic haploid number of chromosomes.


Do eggs and sperms diploid chromosomes?

Gametes, such as eggs and sperm, are haploid, not diploid. Diploid would be somatic cells, such as skin cells or brain cells.

How do diploid somatic cells and haploid gametes organism reproduce?

ribosomes


Is a white blood cell a haploid or a diploid?

Diploid, it is somatic cell therefore will contain 46 chromosomes (23pairs) in humans


DNA is found in what cells?

Human? All somatic (diploid ) cells and all sex (haploid ) cells excepting a very few cell types such as mature red blood cells.
