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.

Answer:

Geotropism is the influence of gravity on plant growth or movement. Simply put, this means that roots grow down and stems grow up. ... In this case, the stimulus is gravity. Upward growth of plant parts, against gravity, is called negative geotropism, and downward growth of roots is called positive geotropism.

Importance of cellulose and hemicellulose in industrial purposes?​
alukav5142 [94]

Explanation:

Cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin form structures called microfibrils, which are organized into macrofibrils that mediate structural stability in the plant cell wall.

The most important biological role of hemicelluloses is their contribution to strengthening the cell wall by interaction with cellulose and, in some walls, with lignin.
