somatic cell

Radiation can cause damage to somatic cells as well as germline cells, and in space there’s more potential for harm from solar particle events, where the sun sends out high-charge, high-energy particles.

Each somatic cell of the hybrid—at least in the comb region—has only half the full determiner for median comb.
