I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. Skin and nerve cells have different appearances and characteristics from each other, although they contain the same DNA because the genes expressed in inskin cells may not be expressed in nerve cells and vise versa.

Answer:

The correct answer is A. the genes expressed in skin cells may not be expressed in nerve cells and vise versa.

Explanation:

Every cell in the body contains the same set of genes in their chromosomes but only some fraction of its gene expresses which allows the different cells to appear and function differently in their environment.

Therefore every cell makes different proteins according to the job that cell performs like in RBC genes are expressed to synthesize the hemoglobin proteins but other cells do not produce this protein because genes for hemoglobin is not expressed in them.

Therefore the right answer is A. the genes expressed in skin cells may not be expressed in nerve cells and vise Versa.

What advantages are there for larger organisms to subdivide themselves into cells
WINSTONCH [101]

Cell division occurs in all living organisms. This is known as mitosis.

The advantages of a larger organisms to subdivide themselves into smaller cells is that as all organisms grow, some of their cells die or get damaged with time and need replacements. So,it divides into smaller cells because when a cell becomes large, it demands more of cell places of its DNA. If the cell grows too large, it will have trouble moving enough nutrients and wastes across the cell membrane. So to grow properly the cells need to be divided.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The options

A. the postzygotic barrier called hybrid inviability

B. the postzygotic barrier called hybrid breakdown

C. the prezygotic barrier called hybrid sterility

D. gametic isolation

The CORRECT ANSWER IS A.

A. the postzygotic barrier called hybrid inviability

Explanation:

Postzygotic barrier is a mechanism that hinders reproduction after fertilization and zygote development. Hybrid inviability occurs when a mating between two organism produces a hybrid that can't strive past the embryonic stages.

In Reduced Hybrid Viability there is a lower tendency to survive for individuals whose parents possesses incompatible genetics, which may have result from sexual union of these parents from varying species.

These two frog species in this case study can be separated through the mechanism of the postzygotic barrier called hybrid inviability.
