no, not really. you may not notice or feel, but your cells die out! now, before you panic, let me tell you, it is fine and normal to lose dead cells. you grow new skin cells. the only part of your body that can naever restore it's cells is the brain. once you lose a brain cell, you can never get a replacement.

No, not all of the cells in your body are the same. For example, if you take a neuron and compare it with a skin cell, they are obviously not in the same form. However, all cells do have the same genetic information throughout the body. If you take a nucleus of your cheek cells and of your liver cell, you can see that they have the exact same nucleic information in the DNA.

So what makes the cells in the body so distinct and different?

The cells in our body have different expressions to perform different functions.

In neurons, one genetic marker is expressed as where in the skin cell, the gene is not. This makes the cells specialized (specialization) and make able so that they can carry out their work.

To sum it up, are all the cells in your bodies the same?

-No and yes.

no because the cells have different genetic expression depending on what type of cell it is

yes because they all have the same genetic information.

Hope that helps.
