Give brief account of somatic cell division ?

Dear Student!

Somatic cell division occurs by mitosis. Mitosis is the process by which the cell divides into two daughter cells. There are 5 stages in mitosis and are as follows.

1 Interphase- Chromosome content doubles

2 Prophase- Chromosome shorten and thicken, nucleoli disappears.

3 Metaphase- Paired homologous chromosome line up at the center attached to the spindle fibres.

4. Anaphase- The chromosomes separate.

5. Telophase- The two cells start to seperate, Nuclear envelope re-forms, the nucleoli reappears and the chromosome uncoils itself.

Somatic cell division --->

It is a part of your peripheral nervous system which responds to your external environment and consists of nerves connected to sensory receptors and skeletal muscle. It permits voluntary action.
