Answer:

Somatic cells are the ones obtained by mitosis. They constitute the body tissues and have a variety of different functions. They are <em>diploid</em>, which means they have two copies of each chromosome (2n), one obtained from the father and one from the mother.

Gametes are obtained by meiosis. A diploid cell divides to form four <em>haploid </em>gametes, they have a single copy of each chromosome (n), obtained from the parent cell.

Zygotes are obtained by the fusion of two gametes, one from the father and one from the mother, they are <em>diploid </em>again having two copies of each chromosome.

What can you see that plant is monocot or dicot​
garri49 [273]

Monocots differ from dicots in four distinct structural features: leaves, stems, roots and flowers.

But, the differences start from the very beginning of the plant's life cycle: the seed. Within the seed lies the plant's embryo. Whereas monocots have one cotyledon (vein), dicots have two. This small difference at the very start of the plant's life cycle leads each plant to develop vast differences.

So, they do not carry nucleus and generally have a single chromosome. Most of them have a cell wall outside  the plasma membrane, which is a thin layer of lipid that completely surrounds the cell.  Prokaryotes reproduce by binary fission method.
