Although all calls have the DNA only some parts of it are turned on different cells (this is called gene expression). Which genes of the DNA are turned on determine the functions and kinds of cell. Even in the same kinds of cell genes can be differently expessed depending on what the cell needs to do at the time. If you have a drink of alcohol for instance a whole bunch of genes turn on in the liver to detoxify the alcohol. When you have meal hundreds of genes in the stomach, intestine and blood stream kick into action to digest the food and send it away for storage or immediate use. Cells have many things that regulate gene expression some things turn genes off or down others turn them up or on. There are factors turn on whole cascades of genes.
What else can I help you with?
Do all somatic cells contain the same amount of DNA?
yes all somatic bady cells have the same genetic make up except lymphocyets.
Is DNA code the same in every somatic cells in human body?
Somatic cells are body cells which are important part of the body's multicellularity and function. So they should have same DNA code in order to maintain a balance in the functioning of the body. And except sex cells (gamates) all the cells of human body (i.e. somatic cells) have the same DNA code. Another reason for this is mitosis. As body cells arise from mitosis, the division is conservative and doesn't involve any process of inducing variation in the cells, hence all the cells originating from it have the same DNA code.
Are DNA in muscle and skin the same?
DNA is found in two organelles: the nucleus and the mitochondria. The amount of nuclear DNA is fixed and does not vary from cell to cell, but the number of mitochondria can affect the amount of mitochondrial DNA.
Do different types off cells have different DNA?
No, all cells in an individual have the same DNA. However, different genes may be activated or silenced in different cell types, allowing them to carry out specific functions. This differential gene expression leads to cell specialization and diversity in function.
Is the DNA in prokaryotic cells circular or eukaryotic cells?
The DNA in prokaryotic cells is circular, while the DNA in eukaryotic cells is linear.
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 same between the DNA in your brain cells to the DNA in your heart cells?
The DNA in brain cells and in heart cells are completely identical. Both types of cell come originally form stem cells, and therefore contain the exact same genetic material. The only difference between brain and heart cells is how they use that DNA code.
What if your skin cells have the exact same DNA as your blood cells?
This would be normal. All body cells have the same DNA, including blood cells, at least at some point during their life cycles. Mature red blood cells do not contain DNA because they do not have cell nuclei. But when red blood cells are first formed, they do have a nucleus with DNA identical to the rest of the body cells.
How is dna hereditary material?
DNA are the "instructions" for cells which contain all the genetic material. When a cell divides, the DNA inside its nucleus replicates and forms the same DNA strands in the two new cells. Therefore, when cells divide by meiosis to form sex cells, they contain the same codes of DNA as the cell they divided from, giving them hereditary characteristics.
Do all somatic cells contain the same amount of DNA?
yes all somatic bady cells have the same genetic make up except lymphocyets.
What do all cells taken from the same organism have?
The same genetic code or DNA.
Is your mouth and finger DNA the same?
No, the DNA in cells from your mouth (such as saliva) and your fingers are both part of your overall genetic makeup, but they may have slight variations due to factors like gene expression and environmental influences. Overall, the DNA in all your cells should be quite similar as it comes from the same source - you.
Are you the same as anyone else?
yes same boby type and same cells diffent DNA
What is the same about the starting cells and daughter cells?
Both the starting cells (parent cells) and daughter cells have an identical copy of DNA in their nucleus
True or false the DNA from your nails is the same DNA as your hair?
True. Both nails and hair are made of a protein called keratin, and the DNA within the cells that produce these structures is the same. Thus, the DNA from your nails is the same as the DNA from your hair.
Are the cells the same and why?
The DNA of cells in the same organism will be the same if no mutations occur. The only diffferences from your hair cells to your muscle cells is the structure of the cell. The structure of a cell gives the cell it's function.
Where in DNA found in a plant cell?
Nucleus, the same as animal cells.
