Answer: Option C

Explanation:

When the DNA and genes of the muscle cell is compared to the DNA and genes of the nerve cell then the main difference in between them lies in the genes that are active in nerve cell to the genes that are active in the muscle cell.

The activated genes in the cell determines its function, the main function of the nerve cell is transportation of signals and the main function of the muscle cell is movement.

Thus,the difference lies in the set of genes that is active in the muscle cell and in nerve cell.

Answer:

The correct answer is - add a few bases for DNA polymerase

Explanation:

A short extended nucleic acid composed of ssRNA molecule. This is a molecule that synthesize a primer initialy and later again lay down a primer after the opening of replication fork by DNA helicase.

It sysntheisze before and after the helicase and follow the helicase in order to prepare for the replication process. Thus, adding a few bases for DNA polymerase is main job of RNA primase.
