Detailed explanation-1: -A somatic cell contains two matched sets of chromosomes, a configuration known as diploid.
Detailed explanation-2: -Description. Humans normally have 46 chromosomes in each cell, divided into 23 pairs. Two copies of chromosome 2, one copy inherited from each parent, form one of the pairs.
Detailed explanation-3: -Every person has two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent. Most genes are the same in all people, but a small number of genes (less than 1 percent of the total) are slightly different between people. Alleles are forms of the same gene with small differences in their sequence of DNA bases.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: Each cell has two copies of each gene because each gene arrives from both parents, so the parent cells should have two copies of genes to pass one of them to their next generation.
