Answer:

The introduction of zebra mussels in the Great Lakes is an example of an unintentional or accidental release.

Explanation:

The zebra mussel known biologically as Dreissera Polymorph's, is a small freshwater mussel which its species was originally from the lakes in Southern Russia and Ukraine. Known globally as invasive species, they got their name through the striped pattern which are mostly seen on their shells.

Zebra mussels were noticed in Canada in the Great Lakes in 1988 at lake St. Clair. They were believed to be unintentionally released into the lakes in the ballast water of ships going to oceans, traveling the St. Lawrence Seaway. Another belief was linked to the introduction or release through anchors and chains even though this belief has been described as mere speculation.

Why do cells with the same DNA have different functions?
deff fn [24]

Answer: This is because all of the cells in our bodies start from a single fertilized egg. With few exceptions, all cells in a person's body have the same DNA and genes. As cells divide and grow different genes are expressed, resulting in different cell types.
