A somatic cell that does not contain a multiple of 23 chromosomes is called?
euploid cell
What is the purpose of somatic cell donor?
Somatic cells are body cells that contain a full set of chromosomes. I imagine that a somatic cell donor donates healthy body cells to someone who needs them.
Is a typical body cell called somatic cell?
Yes, it is. The somatic (body) cells of multi celled organisms that reproduce sexually contain pairs of chromosomes.
Is a sex cell a diploid cell?
No, sex cells contain half the number of chromosomes that somatic (non-sex) cells contain. They are therefore haploidcells.

Is a white blood cell a haploid or a diploid?
Diploid, it is somatic cell therefore will contain 46 chromosomes (23pairs) in humans
How many choromosomes are in a human gamete?
Gametes are haploid cells, this means that they contain half the amount of chromosomes that a somatic cell contains. A normal somatic cell contains 46 chromosomes, while a haploid cell contains 23.
How many chromosome will there in the sex cells of an organism if each somatic cell contain 20 chromosomes?
10
What is and egg cell?
Gametes! They contain half the amount of genetic material that body (somatic) cells contain. BAsed on this fact, they are called haploid.
What cell type is diploid sex cell or ovum or gamete or somatic cell?
The only option in that list that can be diploid is the somatic cell.
How do chromosomes transmit from cell to cell in the somatic cell?
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.
What is somatic cell nuclear transfer?
The transfer of a cell nucleus from a somatic cell into an enucleated egg cell.
