Every cell in the entire organism contains all the DNA that the original zygote had. The genes that the specialized cells don't use are inactivated.
In 2006, Shinya Yamanaka made a groundbreaking discovery. He found a new way to reprogrammed adult, specialized cells to turn them into stem cells. These laboratory-grown stem cells are pluripotent- they can make any type of cell in the body - and are called induced pluripotent stem cells, or iPS cells.
Only embryonic stem cells are naturally pluripotent. Yamanaka's discovery means that theoretically any dividing cell of the body can now be turned into a pluripotent stem cell.

What is a eukaryotic organism?
There are too types. Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes. Prokaryotic cells dont have a nucleus but have DNA. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus enclosed by a membrane. The nucleus hold the cells DNA.
How do embryonic cells become differentiated?
Embryonic cells start off as stem cells in the body, and you have a ton of them when you are born. When they go through Meiosis and Mitosis, they soon become differentiated because they are soon assigned certain jobs in the body. So a stem cell has no specific function in the body, but when it becomes differentiated, they receive a certain function. I'm not specifically sure how they BECOME differentiated, but I do know that they do go through Meiosis and Mitosis........hope that helps a bit. A: The Above plus: - Embryonic cells become differentiated mainly with highly-controlled modifications known as Gene Expression. The DNA in the embryonic cells will differentiate as the following: 1) Transcription 2) RNA Processing 3) Non-coding RNA Maturation 4) RNA Export 5) Translation 6) Folding 7) Protein Transport (Need More Information)
What do cells need to do between divisions to make sure they dont get smaller?
there is no answer
What are DNA cells made of?
DNA is not a cell type. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is inside of almost all cells, in the nucleus. It holds the genetic information for the cell.
What do you think researchers discovered in the mitochondrial DNA taken from the heart cells of older adults?
There are more mitochondria in cells that need a lot of energy, such as heart muscle cells. Some researchers are studying mitochondrial DNA in the heart cells of different age groups.
What organisms have eukaryotes?
Prokaryotic cells dont have a nucleus but have DNA.
Cells whose DNA is held in a nucleus are what?
I dont know
In the movie Jurassic Park did scientists use dna to bring back extinct species how is that different from the creation of cloned sheep used differentiated cells?
Yes they used the dinosaur DNA from fossilized mosquetos and the DNA from a toad, I think

Why do you have DNA in your cells?
You have DNA in your cell because you need DNA to be some one and you should have DNA in your nucleus
When do cells need to copy their DNA?
because it need to form then them

What things that a researcher should avoid?
genes are the cells in DNA but i dont know what a chromosone is
What do red blood cells need for DNA syntheses?
oxygen
What do cells need to do before they undergo mitosis?
Replication of DNA
