Chapter 8, Problem 10Q
Summary Introduction

To determine: An experiment to substantiate the statement, “differentiated cells of an organism contain the same genes”.

Introduction:

The cells with specialized functions such as brain cells or liver cells can be traced back to zygote (fertilized cell). Zygote is an undifferentiated cell, and it differentiates to form mature cells with specific structure and function. This is based on the activation of certain genes and suppression of others during gene expression for the synthesis of functional gene product.
