Which of the following best describes how a liver cell and skin cell have the exact same DNA sequence and yet look different and perform different functions?(1 point)

Question

Responses

The cells mutate during transcription.
The cells mutate during transcription.

The cells discard the DNA that is not in use.
The cells discard the DNA that is not in use.

The proteins are expressed differently in each cell.
The proteins are expressed differently in each cell.

The tRNA uses a different sequence in each cell during transcription.

Answer 1

The best response that describes how a liver cell and a skin cell have the same DNA sequence yet look different and perform different functions is:

The proteins are expressed differently in each cell.

This means that while the DNA remains the same, different genes are activated or expressed in liver cells compared to skin cells, leading to the production of different proteins that determine the cells' structures and functions.
