Cell division that creates
Somatic (Body) Cells
One division to create
two daughter cells
Cells produced are
diploid cells (from diploid cells), genetically identical
New cells used for
growth, wound repair, and cell replacement
Some eukaryotes (mostly single celled)
reproduce asexually via mitosis (“Clone)
Somatic cells are
diploid body cells (skin, muscle, nerves) containing pairs of chromosomes (2𝑛=46 in humans) that divide via mitosis for growth and repair.
Mutations in somatic cells
affect the individual
