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

2 answers:

7 0

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.

A frog with a mass of 0.29kg hops up in the air. At the highest point in the hop, the frog has a gravitational potential energy

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

0.27m

Explanation:

To get the energy

Potential energy= Mgh

M is Mass

G is acceleration due to gravity

H is height..

M= 0.29kg, h= ?

P=0.759. g=9.8m/s

Therefore,

0.759=0.29×9.8×h

H= 0.759÷2.842

H= 0.27m

Which of the following is one of the biggest threats to endangered species? *

kicyunya [14]

The over-harvesting is one of the biggest threats to endangered species.

Option: B

Explanation:

An organism or group of organism or species that is expected to reach extinction in the immediate future, either internationally or under a limited political authority, is understood as an endangered species.
This may be at threat because of factors including habitat loss and poaching or over-exploitation.
There are many species which are getting vanished day by day due to pollution or poaching, for an instance, pangolins, who have been hunted beyond he limits for their skin, scales, meat, and some body parts are utilized by people in making traditional medicine.
The Indian and Philippine pangolin are listed as endangered while the Sunda and the Chinese pangolin are rated as critically endangered by the IUCN, which contributed to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) prohibiting global trade that had something to do with pangolins or their components.
