Chapter 5, Problem 5KQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The mechanisms in which the cells containing identical genes in an organism become differentiated into divergent cell types.
Introduction: A process in which a cell gets changed from one type to another is referred to as cell differentiation. In this process, the cells become the specialized type of cells in order to perform a specific function. This is carried out through gene expression in which the combination of genes are expressed or repressed. On the basis of this expression, the cells obtain their specific function during cell differentiation.

Which of the following best describes the difference between interphase and mitosis?
a) During interphase, DNA has a loose structure that condenses during mitosis.
b) During interphase, histones help compact DNA into chromosomes. And once mitosis starts, histones are destroyed.
c) During interphase, DNA is tightly packed into chromosomes that uncoil once mitosis starts.
d) During interphase, DNA is packed as chromosomes. And during mitosis, DNA is called chromatin.
