How would you expect the genes in the cells of your finger to compare with the genes in the cells of your liver?
Whether the DNA is from your finger, your liver, or your brain, the genes are all there. Depending on where the cell differentiated, different genes are activated while others are dormant. The genes in liver are also present in fingers, they just aren't activated. As of right now, scientists have no way of activating or deactivating a gene.
Why can liver cells create enzyme and heart cells cannot?
because the liver cell uses different genes than the heart cells use
How does a liver cell differ from a heart cell?
brain cells are activated by brain genes and heart cells are activated by heart genes. that's how they function, by their genes
Does a cheek cell contain the same chromosomes as a liver cell?
Yes. In an individual, almost all cells contain DNA (Red Blood Cells do not). That DNA is tightly wound like you would twist a drawstring, and kept tightly coiled as chromosomes. Since chromosomes can be found in a cheek cell, a liver cell (hepatocyte), and almost all other cells, they all contain the same chromosomes, which inevitably have the same genes. What makes cheek cells different from liver cells is which genes are turned on and off. Cheek cells have different genes turned on compared to liver cells.
What are the viral genes for?
to produce copies of the virus once inside the host cell
Why must certain genes in eukaryotic cells be present in multiple copies?
To produse RNA
Are genes present in plant cells?
Yes because plant cells go through Mitosis and Meiosis just like animal cells
Do eukaryotic cells have genes?
All cells have genes
Where genes and chromosomes are found in your body?
Answerchromosomes are found mostly in the nucleus of your cells and there is where you will find the chromosomes.
How could a substance that stops the synthesis of m RNA?
An inhibition of mRNA synthesis will not only affect the liver but all organs and the body itself. Cells transcribe DNA to mRNA which is translated into the cytosol to proteins. The proteins in liver cells will work in various capacities to help it fulfill its function of detoxification and processing. If these proteins are not present in liver cells, the cells will eventually die, as will the liver itself.
How do genes affect cells?
Genes tell cells how to make proteins.
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.
