Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The change in the external and internal environment of a cell, allows the cell to respond. It is critical for life to respond to the change. The response of a cell changes the time and rate of gene expression. From the gene transcription to the translation, all steps are regulated for gene expression.

A. During development, all of the genes in the embryo's cells are expressed at first, but fewer and fewer are expressed as time proceeds. B. During development, different sets of genes are deleted from different cell types so that at the end of development, each cell has only the genes it needs. C. During development, different cells become specialized to have different phenotypes even though they all originated from the same cell. ..arrow_forward___________ are changes to the order of nucleotides in a segment of DNA that codes for a protein. a.

The researcher observes that transplanting tissue from the area of the embryo that normally becomes the head of the fly to the bottom part of an embryo does not alter the embryological development of that organism. What to conclude from that observation? This observation remains to be explained. The embryo does not produce sufficient survival factors to maintain the transplanted cells. The cell fate of the transplanted cells had not yet been determined. O The transplanted cells all activate the apoptosis response, and thus do not affect the developmental program.arrow_forward
