If the cells are from one individual, all will have the same genes except their sex cells which have 1/2 the number. A dog will have different genes from a cat. The genes make the cat different from the dog and human.

Do all body cells activate the same genes?
All body cells have the same genes except for the sex cells (sperm and ova). They do not use the same genes. A muscle cell isn't using the same genes as a nerve cell does. Otherwise the muscle cell and the nerve cell would not be different nor do different things.
Why are some cells brain cells and others skin cells when the DNA is the same?
All body cells have the same DNA. They all play different roles because the brain sends them signals to do so. You can't have them all doing the same thing. Ex: If you only have skin cells, then what cells will make up your heart or liver or bones?
How can 2 plants cells from the same plant have different structures and functions?
Different genes are expressed (see - epigenetics).
What is the difference between Cells and Genes?
The Cells hold the genes. Genes are a part of DNA, which is located in the Nucleus of a Cell.
What is unexpressed genes?
Genes are cells that decompose in a plant cell.

Do different kinds of cells in an embryo have different sets of genes?
No. With the odd exception (eg. mature red blood cells because they have no nucleus) every cell in a multicellular organism has the same set of genes. What gives the cells their different character, their phenotype, is which of these genes are expressed at any given time.
Are the genes in daughter cells produced by mitoses the same as or different from the genes in the original cell?
No. Because each daughter cells gets a different pair of chromosomes.
Are all genes in an organism being transcribed and translated in all cells?
No. This is why you have different types of cells.
Do eukaryotic cells have genes?
All cells have genes
What are two ways sex cells different from other cells?
it helps the genes more and helps with more chromosome
Why do different types of cells arise in your body?
different genes are switched on and off in each type of cell
How do genes affect cells?
Genes tell cells how to make proteins.
Why are some cells brain cells and others skin cells when the DNA is the same?
All body cells have the same DNA. They all play different roles because the brain sends them signals to do so. You can't have them all doing the same thing. Ex: If you only have skin cells, then what cells will make up your heart or liver or bones?
Muscle cells and nerve cells in one species of animal owe their differences in structure to?
Having different genes. Expressed.
How can 2 plants cells from the same plant have different structures and functions?
Different genes are expressed (see - epigenetics).
Which genes are present in your liver cells?
All your genes are present in your liver cells
