Answer:
In somatic cells, 16 chromosomes are present whereas in sex cells, there is 8 chromosomes.
Explanation:
In the somatic cells, the replication of chromosomes occur and after the replication is completed, the parent cell is divided into two daughter cells having double number of chromosome by each daughter cell i.e. 16 chromosomes while on the other hand, in sex cells, first the parent cell divides into two daughter cells and after sometime, these daughter cells are again divided having total four daughter cells each receives half number of chromosomes i.e. 8 chromosomes.
