2. 1.Please compare and contrast somatic cells and gametes. Somatic cells – are any kind of body cell (stomach cell, nerve cell etc) Gametes – are sex cells (egg or sperm cells) 2.What is the relationship between chromatin and chromosomes?

Chromatids – are a chromosome and its copy Centromeres – are the part in the middle of the chromatids holding them together.
