I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A.
The first type of cell to differentiate is a neuron. The neurons are
cells that process and transmits information through electrical and
chemical signals. Hope this answers the question.
Answer:
a design is how something is and how it looks. and a method is how you could solve something like a math problem.

im sorry if this does not help you.
Answer/Explanation:
(1) a mutation in the coding region, resulting in an inactive protein
To check to see if there is a mutation, you could extract the DNA from the cancer cells and then perform PCR to amplify the gene of interest. You could then perform sanger sequencing and compare the sequence to the normal gene to see if a mutation is present. To test the effect of the mutation, you would want to see if an active protein has been formed.
To see if a normal sized protein has been formed, you could perform a western blot, comparing the protein band to the WT protein band. If the protein is absent or much smaller, it is likely not a functional protein.
(2) epigenetic silencing at the promoter of the gene, resulting in reduced transcription.
To check for changes in the epigenetic landscape of the promoter, you could perform chromatin immunoprecipitation by extracting the chromatin from the tumour cells and using antibodies for different chromatin marks to see what has changed between the normal cells and the tumor cells. E.g. H3K9me3, H3K27me3. You would perform a pull down with the antibody of interest and then PCR for your promoter to specifically look at changes at that gene compared to normal cells. To test DNA methylation, you could perform bisulfite sequencing.
To see how transcription is affected, you could extract RNA from the tumor and normal cells, and compare the levels of RNA between the two samples by qRT-PCR
The avian
kidneys are divided into units called lobules and as the two avian kidneys of
birds do their work or function, most of these birds excrete nitrogenous waste
known as uric acid from the blood, which reduces water loss but requires more
metabolic energy to produce nitrogenous waste.
