somatic chromosome
A somatic chromosome is any chromosome found in the body cells or somatic cells (non-reproductive cells) of an organism. These chromosomes are usually present in pairs and contain genetic information needed for the development, growth, and function of the organism. The number of these chromosomes varies across different species but for humans, there are 46 somatic chromosomes, 23 from each parent.
