Cells undergo differentiation during embryonic development. an individual skin cell develops differently from a muscle cell because a) the cells have different dna. b) the cells have different genes. c) the cells express different genes. d) the cells have different chromosomes.

An individual skin cell develops differently from a muscle cell because the cells express different genes.   All the given cells present in the body, be it skin or muscle cells have the same DNA and the same set of genes. However, these cells are able to develop differently from each other due to the differential expression of their genes. Differential expression of genes means that the different cells which perform different function although have the same set of genes, express different genes at different times and thus, look and function differently. Skin and muscles cells also express a different set of genes and thus they develop differently from each other.

A) the cells have different DNA.

The main role of dna in the  cell is the long-term storage of information. it is often compared to a blueprint, since it contains the instructions to construct other components of the  cell, such as  proteins  and rna molecules.the main function of rna is to carry information of amino acid sequence from the genes to where  proteins  are assembled on  ribosomes  in the  cytoplasm. mark brainliest, my work is good.
