It also indicated that it was possible for the DNA in differentiated somatic (body) cells to revert to an undifferentiated embryonic stage, thereby reestablishing pluripotency—the potential of an embryonic cell to grow into any one of the numerous different types of mature body cells that make ...
During mitosis, the nucleus of the cell replicates so that the new cell that forms will have the same information as the original cell. This is followed by cytokinesis, in which the cytoplasm splits into two new cells. Another type of cell division called meiosis produces cells that form ...

What are examples of somatic cells? The term somatic cells refers to any type of cells that contain the diploid number of chromosomes. Examples include nerve, blood, muscle, and bone cells. How many types of somatic cells are there? There are over 220 types of somatic cells, each having ...
This remarkable capacity, until now a puzzling phenomenon, is fully expressed when plant cells are cultured in vitro , allowing the regeneration of new plants completely modeled on their mother plant. The finding that transition from mitosis to meiosis may occur in cultured plant cells, and ...
Cells are the basic, fundamental unit of life. So, if we were to break apart an organism to the cellular level, the smallest independent component that we would find would be the cell. Explore the cell notes to know what is a cell, cell definition, cell structure, types and functions of...
Fat cells, also called adipocytes, are a major cell component ofadipose tissue. Adipocytes contain droplets of stored fat (triglycerides) that can be used for energy. When fat is stored, its cells become round and swollen. When fat is used, its cells shrink. Adipose cells also have a criti...

Insexual reproduction, two parents donate genes to their offspring through a process called fertilization. The resulting young receives a combination ofinherited genes. In fertilization, male and femalesex cellsor gametes fuse to form a single cell called a zygote. A zygote grows and develops bymito...
