<u><em>Human somatic cells or body cells are diploid such that they contain two sets of 23 chromosomes which gives a total of 23 chromosomes.</em></u>
Examples <em><u>of somatic cells in the body that are diploid include, epithelial cells, somatic cells, liver cells, blood cells, nerve cells, etc.</u></em>
However, <u><em>mature sex cells are haploid, which means they have one set of 23 chromosomes which means they have 23 chromosomes.</em></u> Sex cells are the results of meiosis type of cell division in which a diploid cell divides to form four daughter cells that are haploid.
It is enclosed by a nuclear membrane perforated by numerous pores. It regulates the activities of the rest of the cell. It contains chromosomes which carry the hereditary materials. One or more densely staining bodies called nucleoli is present in the nucleus. It is site for synthesis of ribosomes
