Question

Responses

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

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

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

The cells mutate during transcription.

Answer 1

The best response that describes how a liver cell and a skin cell can have the same DNA sequence but look and function differently is:

The proteins are expressed differently in each cell.

This is because different genes are turned on or off in different cell types, leading to the production of distinct proteins that determine the cell's structure and function.
