The DNA in every cell contains a complete copy of the data needed to build a human body, however, in differentiated cells (everything but stem cells), not all of it is active. Some of it is turned on and some of it is turned off. So in a bone cell, the parts relating to bone formation are on, while a cell from a liver would have other parts on. Incidentally, there's no such thing as a "liver cell". Livers are made of different types of cells, the main type being parenchymal cells.

What is the size of a hepatocyte cell?
The normal size of liver is between 9cm to 15cm.
Is the gamete cell formed in fertilization the same or different than the parent cell?
Same
What causes the differences between two human cell types?
contain same genes, but uses different combinations of them.
Is the DNA in people's cheek cells as the same as the DNA in other cells?
Yes. Within a single person, all of the somatic cells have the same nuclear genomic DNA; it does not matter if you compare DNA from a cheek cell to a liver cell.
What is the weakest part of a human cell?
The answer would be the same as the weakest parts of a man's body, since both are composed of the same tissue, muscles, nerves, etc.
A human liver cell is very different in a structure and function from a nerve cell in the same person this is best explained by the fact?
A.different genes function in each type of cell
Are the cells the same?
Cells can be the same, but there are many, many different types of cells. These will be different depending on their function and location. For example, a cell found in cardiac tissue will be different to one found in liver tissue.
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 is the size of a hepatocyte cell?
The normal size of liver is between 9cm to 15cm.
Why does a skin cell divide more often than liver cell?
As far as I know, liver cells usually only undergo mitosis if the liver is damaged. You should check a few other sources though.
Does the medicine same for liver the same in humans and dogs?
Liver medicines do not work the same on humans as they do dogs. A dogs body works different than a humans.
What are differences between monkey and human skull?
The human skull and sheep skull are quite a bit different. The human skull is more round than the sheep skull.
Where is the donor liver placed in a heterotopic tranplantation?
The donor liver is placed in a different site, but it still has to have the same connections.
Is the gamete cell formed in fertilization the same or different than the parent cell?
Same
What is a homophone for skull?
A homophone for "skull" is "scull," which refers to a small rowing boat or an oar used for rowing.
Is the nucleus of a plant cell different than animal cell?
No I think they are both the same as they do the same things in each cell
Is a cells live the same for every cell?
no. every cell is different
