Question

which type of cells undergo mitosis and meiosis???

Answer

Somatic cell is your answer

◇Most eukaryotic cells that are not involved in the production of gametes undergo mitosis.

◇These cells, known as somatic cells, are important to the survival of eukaryotic organisms, and it is essential that somatic parent and daughter cells do not vary from one another.

◇Meiosis is a special type of cell division that takes place only in cells involved in sexual reproduction.

◇In higher organisms like humans, these are immature sperm cells in males and developing eggs in females.

◇All other cells in your body use a different type of cell division, called mitosis, to produce new cells.

◇For example, cells in your skin divide regularly by mitosis to keep a new supply of skin cells available at all times.

◇When a cell begins to divide by mitosis, it makes a second copy of the DNA in its nucleus.

◇Chromosomes contain this DNA, and humans have 46 chromosomes.

◇Once DNA production is done, there are still 46 chromosomes, but each is twice the normal size.

◇Next, chromosomes line up across the cell's center and each chromosome splits in half, with one half moving to each end of the cell.

◇Finally, a new membrane forms across the middle of the cell, making two new cells, each containing 46 new chromosomes.

◇In the absence of spontaneous changes to DNA, called mutations, mitosis produces two new cells that are identical to the parent cell.

Somatic cells go through mitosis, whereas germ cells go through meiosis.

Any biological cell that makes up an organism's body; that is, any cell that isn't a gamete, germ cell, gametocyte, or undifferentiated stem cell in a multicellular creature.

Any biological cell that gives birth to the gametes of a sexually reproducing organism is referred to as a germ cell.

Except for sperm and egg cells, a somatic cell is any cell in the body. Somatic cells are diploid, which means they have two sets of chromosomes, one for each parent. Individuals can be affected by somatic cell mutations, but they are not passed on to kids.

A germ cell is any biological cell that generates gametes in a sexually reproducing organism. Germ cells arise in the primitive streak of many animals and move to the developing gonads via the embryo's gut. Plants, unlike mammals, do not have germ cells identified in the early stages of development.
