Which of the following best describes how a liver cell and skin cell have the exact same DNA

Though not exact, the statement that best describes how a liver cell and skin cell have the exact same DNA sequence and yet look different and perform different functions is the last one, the DNA is expressed differently, which leads to proteins being "expressed" differently in each cell.

During early embryonic development, the few cells that make up our organism are totipotent in nature. A totipotent cell is one with the capability to produce any tissue in the human body. All the cells that later make up our bodies are derived from these.

This explains that although not all of the DNA sequence is expressed at all times, the DNA is still present in the cell, meaning that option 1 is false. Option 2 is also false due to the fact that although mutations can occur from time to time, they are certainly not a common process nor are they normal. Finally, option 3 is false given that tRNA's only role is to apport the correct amino acid for each sequence.

As development continues, cells specialize into specific tissues. They do this by compressing certain areas of their DNA, making it unreadable and therefore limiting the expression of that area of the genetic code. This causes the proteins that are synthesized to be unique for each type of tissue.

When a skeletal muscle relaxes, what causes the myosin cross-bridges to separate and the thin filaments to return to their origi

Rina8888 [55]

When a skeletal muscle relaxes,myosin head attach to actin by breaking down ATP to ADP and phosphate with the help of myosin ATPase. The myosin head forms the cross -bridges on the active site of the actin.The cross-bridge pulls the actin which slide over the myosin. The release of ADP completes the cross-bridge movements . ATP attaches to myosin, and break the actin -myosin cross-bridge. Thus breaking of ATP into ADP and phosphate help the thin filament to return to their original position.

Korvikt [17]

The answer to this question is "PERCEPTION". The term refers to the mental capacity that process of sorting out things, interpreting things mentally, analyzing things and conditions, and integrating stimuli from the sense organs and from the brain and later come up in a concrete and the sensible result after mental processing.

You disrupt all hydrogen bonds in a protein. what level of structure will be preserved?

Alex777 [14]

I believe the primary structure will be preserved. The secondary level of proteins is defined by patterns of hydrogen bonds between the main chain peptide groups. Therefore distorting the Hydrogen bonds disrupts the secondary structures. The primary structure on the other hand is not affected by disruption of the hydrogen bond since these structures refers to the sequences of amino acids in the polypeptide chains that are joined by the peptide bonds.

A new pesticide is sprayed on a cornfield. As a result, the corn crop will most likely?

AlexFokin [52]

GMOs have been changing the way that pesticides are used in agriculture. Herbicide-tolerant genetically modified (GM) crops have led to an increase in herbicide usage while insecticide-producing GM crops have led to a decrease in insecticides.
