Would a nerve cell and a blood cell from a human contain the same DNA

Biology
1 answer:
Readme [11.4K]4 years ago
4 0

Every cell of the body contains the same DNA. So, the nerve cells and the blood cells have the same set of genetic instructions.

Different cells are produced by differential use of that DNA. Different sets of genes must be turned on and off in the various cell types (differently expressed genes).

Most cells in a human body contain a complete set of the genome <span>( the genetic material of an organism), which is two sets of 23 chromosomes, with exception of egg and sperm cells, which carry only half a set of chromosomes (23 instead of 46).</span>

the part of the brain controlling basic body functions such that heart rate and blood pressure is what?
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer: The brain stem, at the bottom of the brain, connects the cerebrum with the spinal cord. It includes the midbrain, the pons, and the medulla. It controls fundamental body functions such as breathing, eye movements, blood pressure, heartbeat, and swallowing.

Explain how Rutherford's students knew that<br> Thomson's model of the atom needed to<br> change.
musickatia [10]

Answer:

Thomson's plum pudding model of the atom had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged "soup." Rutherford's gold foil experiment showed that the atom is mostly empty space with a tiny, dense, positively-charged nucleus. Based on these results, Rutherford proposed the nuclear model of the atom.

How does a hydrogen bond form?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

It results from the attractive force between a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a very electronegative atom such as a N, O, or F atom and another very electronegative atom.

How many different regions can activators bind to?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

uhhhhhhh erm have a good day is the answer yep mhm

Explanation:

A transcriptional activator is a protein (transcription factor) that increases transcription of a gene or set of genes. Activators are considered to have positive control over gene expression, as they function to promote gene transcription and, in some cases, are required for the transcription of genes to occur. Most activators are DNA-binding proteins that bind to enhancers or promoter-proximal elements.The DNA site bound by the activator is referred to as an "activator-binding site". The part of the activator that makes protein–protein interactions with the general transcription machinery is referred to as an "activating region" or "activation domain".

Most activators function by binding sequence-specifically to a regulatory DNA site located near a promoter and making protein–protein interactions with the general transcription machinery (RNA polymerase and general transcription factors), thereby facilitating the binding of the general transcription machinery to the promoter.Other activators help promote gene transcription by triggering RNA polymerase to release from the promoter and proceed along the DNA. At times, RNA polymerase can pause shortly after leaving the promoter; activators also function to allow these “stalled” RNA polymerases to continue transcription.

The activity of activators can be regulated. Some activators have an allosteric site and can only function when a certain molecule binds to this site, essentially turning the activator on Post-translational modifications to activators can also regulate activity, increasing or decreasing activity depending on the type of modification and activator being modified.

In some cells, usually eukaryotes, multiple activators can bind to the binding-site; these activators tend to bind cooperatively and interact synergistically.
