Answer: As each cell differentiates, the <em>DNA </em>changes so that each type of cell has different <em>DNA</em> once it reaches maturity. Mutations in the cells’ nuclei lead to new combinations of <em>DNA</em>, resulting in different shapes and functions in the different types of cells.

Answer:
D (Swell and Burst)
Explanation:
Pure water contains a very low concentration of solute materials, hence it is regarded as HYPOTONIC. Since the red blood cell contains intracellular fluid that contains more solutes than the extracellular pure water it is placed in, it is said to be HYPERTONIC in comparison with the pure water.
This difference in concentration between the extracellular solution (pure water) and the intracellular fluid (red blood cell) called CONCENTRATION GRADIENT facilitates the movement of water by OSMOSIS. Osmosis is the process whereby water moves across a semi-permeable membrane from a region of low solute concentration to a high solute concentration.
Based on this osmotic gradient, water moves from the extracellular solution into the cell, causing it to swell and eventually burst as a result of excessive water intake.
