Undergo differentiation 
become stem cells 
turn on all of the genes found in the nucleus 

some cells can undergo cell division
madam [21]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct options would be  

  • Become stem cells
  • Undergo differentiation  
  • Turn on all of the genes found in the nucleus

The cell is said to differentiate when they grow and mature to perform a specialized function.  

It can not re-differentiate into any other cell type. For example, muscle cell cannot differentiate into the blood cell.

In addition, the differentiated cell cannot convert back to the stem cell as stem cell is an undifferentiated cell which is capable of dividing and differentiate into another cell type.

Lastly, in a differentiated cell, only a specific set of genes are expressed. For example, in a sarcomere different set of genes would be expressed as compared to the genes expressed in a neuron.

A mutation is made once in every nucleotides copies
dimaraw [331]

Explanation:

A mutation is made once in every <u>10 billion</u> nucleotides copied.

During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise. These mutations are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes.

 

Further Explanation:

 

During reproduction other events, such as crossing over during mitosis and meiosis, mutations lead to increases in genetic variation. This variation refers to the genetic characteristics present within a species. Mutations may be either beneficial or deleterious; they are maintained within cells, as they form new traits called alleles. Beneficial mutations may confer traits that increase the fitness of a species, along with ensuring survival by conferring a protective advantage- these phenotypic differences between organisms are called adaptations.

 

Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA, which makes up the genotype, is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins which make up the phenotype of an organism. Mutations in DNA sequences affect the corresponding mRNA and thus the protein encoded.
