Somatic cells are diploid (2n) which means they have 2 copies of each chromosome.ResponsesTrueTrueFalse

Both somatic cells and germ cells are diploid, although only germ cells can undergo meiosis.Group startsTrue or False

15. How does a somatic cell which just completed the S phase of its cell cycle compare to a gamete of the same species in terms of the number of chromosomes and amount of DNA?*1 pointA. It has twice the number of chromosomes and twice the amount of DNA.B. It has the same number of chromosomes but twice the amount of DNA.C. It has twice the number of chromosomes and four times the amount of DNA.D. It has four times the number of chromosomes and twice the amount of DNA

A diploid cell has ______ alleles for each gene, one on each homologous chromosome.

In the diagram above, a single somatic cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells.This involves the replication of the genetic material, the division of the nucleus and the division of the cytoplasm and cell structures.Mitosis is completed when the plasma membrane of the original cell folds inwards, splitting the cell in two (known as daughter cells). This phase is called:

A cell containing two sets of chromosomes (2n), one set inherited from each parent.Group of answer choicesdiploid cellhaploid cell
