Somatic cells. somatic cells contain 2 sets of chromosomes (diploid cells) while Gametes contain 1 set of chromosomes (haploid cells), so the more effect would be on the somatic cells. if this helped please give this brainliest

Explanation:

Hereditary mutations are inherited from a parent and are present throughout a person’s life in virtually every cell in the body. These mutations are also called germline mutations because they are present in the parent’s egg or sperm cells, which are also called germ cells. When an egg and a sperm cell unite, the resulting fertilized egg cell receives DNA from both parents. If this DNA has a mutation, the child that grows from the fertilized egg will have the mutation in each of his or her cells.

Acquired (or somatic) mutations occur at some time during a person’s life and are present only in certain cells, not in every cell in the body. These changes can be caused by environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation from the sun, or can occur if a mistake is made as DNA copies itself during cell division. Acquired mutations in somatic cells (cells other than sperm and egg cells) cannot be passed on to the next generation

What are Mendel's Laws?
Nady [450]

1. Law of Segregation: When gametes form, alleles are separated so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene

2. Law of Independent Assortment: The segregation of alleles for one gene occurs independently to that of any other gene

3. Principle of Dominance: Recessive alleles will be masked by dominant alleles†

Answer:

C) The follicular tags are stretched.

Explanation:

Follicular tags are the parts of the follicule root that are still attached to the end of the hair, if they are stretched that means that the follicule suffered from distress from being pulled from the follicule and that the force with which was being pulled caused a rupture in the hair follicule that made the follicular tags to stretch and eventually separate the hair from the head.
