Question 1

In what way does a human somatic cell differ from a human gamete?

Accepted Answer

A)  Somatic cells are diploid (n),whereas gametes are haploid (2n). 
B)  Somatic cells are created by meiosis,whereas gametes are created by mitosis. 
C)  Somatic cells differentiate into at least 220 cell types,whereas there are only two types of gametes. 
D)  Somatic cells can spontaneously change into gametes,but gametes must remain gametes.
