Differentiation is a very complicated regulated process that occurs during development of the cell. The process is triggered by specific growth factors that direct the cell towards a particular lineage of cells, during which parts (genes) of DNA unnecessary for the activity of that particular lineage are supercoiled and kept as such until the time for division.
What else can I help you with?
What happens to a cell's DNA prior to cell division?
It replicates.
What happens during the S phase of the cell?
cell duplicates its DNA
When a cell divides during asexual reproduction describe what happens to DNA of the cell during this type of cell division?
the DNA will divide
What is the process of cell specialization called?
As the cell in a multi cellular organism multiply they become specialized or different functions in a process called cell differentiations. A short segment of DNA that contains instructions for the development of a single trait of gene.
What cell cause mutations?
DNA polymerase
Why does HPV cause cancer?
HPV can cause cancer by integrating its DNA into the host cell's DNA, leading to abnormal cell growth and potentially cancerous changes.
What happens to the DNA in prophase of the cell cycle?
During prophase of the cell cycle, the DNA condenses and coils tightly to form visible chromosomes. This process helps to organize and prepare the DNA for cell division.
If every somatic body cell in your body has the same DNA then why doesn't every cell do the exact same job?
The reason every cell does different things despite having the exact same DNA is that the DNA isn't responsible for deciding what happens, only translating what occurs. Messenger RNA gets the code from the DNA, and that's what determines what proteins get produced in each cell.
What happens when a DNA molecule unzips?
DNA splits, and mRNA and tRNA are there to create new strands for the new replicated DNA strand. This is what happens prior to mitosis in cell division.
What happens during the s phase of the cells?
cell duplicates its DNA
What happens to DNA during cell division?
It replicates to the new cell being created. An exact clone of the original cell.
What happens to the info before the cell divides?
Your DNA is copied into the new cell every time it divides
