Determine if the statement is true or false, and why.
"The key to cell differentiation is that only some of the genes in a cell are expressed at any one time."
A. False, it should read "The key to Protein Synthesis is that only some of the genes in a cell are expressed at any one time."
B. False, it should read "The key to cell differentiation is that all of the genes in a cell are expressed at the same time."
C. True
D. False, it should read "The key to cell differentiation is that only one of the genes in a cell is ever expressed at any one time."
Answer (2)
The statement about cell differentiation is true as only some genes in a cell are expressed at any one time, allowing for specialization in cell types. This selective gene expression is critical for the development of multicellular organisms. Different cells express different genes which contributes to their unique functions.
