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 <u>option 1 is false</u>. <u>Option 2 is also false</u> 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, <u>option 3 is false</u> 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.

As an aspiring undergraduate researcher, you want to identify the gene responsible for bacterial virulence of your favorite path
Marianna [84]

Answer:

When directed mutagenesis which is also called reverse genetics is used, only a single mutation per genome is introduced. In contrast, the number of mutations per genome introduced by random mutagenesis is usually difficult to control. It is likely that the strain you obtained with a mutation in gene X after random mutagenesis contained an additional mutation or perhaps multiple mutations which ultimately was/were responsible for loss of virulence in your favorite pathogen.
