How does gene expression lead to differentiation

Biology
1 answer:
ExtremeBDS [4]3 years ago
3 0
Every cell of the organism has the same DNA sequence and same genes. However, not all genes are expressed in every single cell at the same time. Only those genes necessary for a specialised function of a specialised cell are expressed in the specialised cell. For example, skin cells have some different proteins than nerve cells. Genes responsible for those "skin proteins" are activated in skin cells and are turned off in nerve cells.

A scientist discovers a new organism that is related to clownfish. What can the scientist discover by using molecular clocks?
Margaret [11]

Answer;

C) the amount of time that the two species have been evolving apart

Explanation;

-Scientists can use relaxed-clock methods to deal with variation in the rate of the molecular clock. By measuring the patterns of evolutionary rate variation among organisms, they can also gain valuable insight into the biological processes that determine how quickly the molecular clock ticks.

- The molecular clock hypothesis states that DNA and protein sequences evolve at a rate that is relatively constant over time and among different organisms. A direct consequence of this constancy is that the genetic difference between any two species is proportional to the time since these species last shared a common ancestor.

you find that some cells have twice the amount of DNA in their nuclei as other cells do. What might you conclude?
Pie
They might be going through the S Phase of the cell cycle which is DNA replication. Usually, when the cells go through this phase they end up to dividing.
