Skin and nerve cells have different appearances and characteristics from each other, although they contain the same dna. why? a. the genes expressed in in skin cells may not be expressed in nerve cells and vise versa
b. the genes in skin cells are transcribed but not translated as genes of nerve cells
c. the dna in nerve cells undergoes mutations making them different from dna in skin cells.

The correct answer is A. the genes expressed in skin cells may not be expressed in nerve cells and vise versa.

Explanation:

Every cell in the body contains the same set of genes in their chromosomes but only some fraction of its gene expresses which allows the different cells to appear and function differently in their environment.

Therefore every cell makes different proteins according to the job that cell performs like in RBC genes are expressed to synthesize the hemoglobin proteins but other cells do not produce this protein because genes for hemoglobin is not expressed in them.

Therefore the right answer is A. the genes expressed in skin cells may not be expressed in nerve cells and vise Versa.

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!

question: which statement best describes the different properties of metals?

answer: they are shiny and bend without breaking.

since metals have certain characteristics properties, they include the following: they are ductile, malleable, shiny, hard, lustrous, flexible and they are good conductor of heat and electricity. so therefore, metals are not dull and they are not non-flexible as listed. instead, they are shiny and flexible.

hope this , have a good day. c;
