DNA Content. The somatic cells of an animal species contain a specific number of chromosomes that must be maintained for the cells to work properly. In humans, they each contain 46 chromosomes, which includes 22 pairs of homologous chromosomes and one pair that is non-homologous.erm cells each contain 23 chromosomes. When an egg and sperm fuse to produce a zygote, the new cell therefore has the full complement of 46, with one set of 23 from the egg and one from the sperm. All of the somatic cells that develop from the zygote have the same 46 chromosomes.
Somatic mutations that happen in a single cell early in embryonic development can lead to a situation called mosaicism. These genetic changes are not present in a parentâs egg or sperm cells, or in the fertilized egg, but happen a bit later when the embryo includes several cells.As all the cells divide during growth and development, cells that arise from the cell with the altered gene will have the mutation, while other cells will not.n some cases, the mutation occurs in a personâs egg or sperm cell but is not present in any of the personâs other cells. In other cases, the mutation occurs in the fertilized egg shortly after the egg and sperm cells unite.
