1. Somatic-cell nuclear transfer, known as SCNT, can also be used to create embryos for research or therapeutic purposes.

2. Dr. Allan King is an expert in embryo-based technologies such as transgenesis, somatic cell cloning, and stem cell propagation.

3. That means each somatic cell of the plant contains two complete genome copies (diploid) and each genome has ten chromosomes.

4. Reproductive Cloning “involves creating an animal that is genetically identical to a donor animal through somatic cell nuclear transfer” (NYSTEM, 2019).

5. When this type of crossing over occurs in a somatic cell during the mitotic division , it is referred to as somatic mutation .

6. 18 The somatic cell chromosomes in F1 hybrid plants indicated that good genes of oats can be introduced into the bread wheat to enrich the germ plasm resources of the wheat.

7. In mitosis—the cellular replication and division of a somatic cell—the chromosomes replicate into sister Chromatids before prophase begins, at which point they migrate to the center of the cell

8. How many total Chromatids are present in the G2 of the cell cycle in a human somatic cell? What is the process called that results in doubling of number of chromatid? Just to make sure, is it 92 Chromatids for the first question and for the second question, is it mitosis?

9. For the purposes of this Annex, somatic cell therapy medicinal products shall mean the use in humans of autologous (emanating from the patient himself), allogeneic (coming from another human being) or xenogeneic (coming from animals) somatic living cells, the biological characteristics of which have been substantially altered as a result of their manipulation to obtain a therapeutic, diagnostic or preventive effect through metabolic, pharmacological and immunological means.
