Detailed explanation-1: -These cells are typically found throughout the body tissues and are called [ germ / somatic ] cells. A cell with only one of set of chromosomes is called [ diploid / haploid ] cell. These types of cells are found in the reproductive organs and are called [ germ / somatic ] cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Somatic cells are the cells in the body other than sperm and egg cells (which are called germ cells). In humans, somatic cells are diploid, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: In the human body, most of your cells are diploid. This includes your skin cells, muscle cells, and cells that make up your organs and tissues. The only cells that are NOT diploid within your body are reproductive cells, such as sperm or egg cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Diploid cells, or somatic cells, contain two complete copies of each chromosome within the cell nucleus. The two copies of one chromosome pair up and are called homologous chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Most cells in humans are diploid, comprising 23 chromosome pairs, so 46 chromosomes in total. This is 22 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes. One copy of each chromosome pair came from the individual’s mother and the other from the individual’s father.
