The correct answer here is "cell membrane". Generally it makes sure that nothing enters or leaves the cell, except by its highly guarded "gates", such as ion channels, that let some particles through - but they're very picky about whom to let in!

Virtually all cells in the human body have the same DNA. What’s make some undifferentiated cells differentiated into brain cells
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Changes in gene expression

Explanation:

This phenomenon is the result of changes in gene expression. That means, how the information in the DNA is used by the cell. The genes that are active in the cells of the brain will be very different from the genes that are active in the cells of the bone marrow.

These patterns of gene expression are different for each cell, and dictate the identity of that cell. Gene expression patterns are controlled by a variety of factors in the cell that allow tissue-specific expression, such a transcription factors.

This can also be facilitated by another layer of regulation called epigenetics, which literally means "on top of" genetics, and refers to modifications of DNA (and the proteins around it), that can reflect and influence the activity of the genes within.

The energy that is released by the hydrolysis of atp by actin is used for:
anyanavicka [17]
The energy released is used for assembly of actin filament with myosin head. when myosin is attached to ATP its heads cannot bind to actin and therefore muscle will remain in relaxed form. However during muscle contraction an enzyme referred to as ATPase hydrolyses ATP to ADP and organic phosphate in the process releasing energy. The energy released changes the position of head of myosin which facilatate its binding with actin. Myosin moves towards m-line dragging actin along with it reducing the length of sarcomere leading to muscle contraction.
