3 points
creation of new plant stems
creation of new organisms
creation of new embryos
creation of new tissues

RNA.
ATP.
ADP.
What is the ultimate cause for the difference between muscle and nerve cells?
*
3 points
they both have different shapes
they both have different functions
they are only different in mammals
different genes are activated in the cells
Which
best
accounts for the variety of cells within our bodies?
*
3 points
differentiation
multiple nucleic acids
multiple chromosomes
environmental influences
What causes DNA instructions to make a muscle cell instead of a nerve cell?
*
3 points
The muscle cell and nerve cell inherit different DNA sequences.
Transcription of different genes leads to the synthesis of different proteins in the two cell types.
The chromosomal DNA is rearranged and mutated so that the cell can become a muscle cell instead of a nerve cell.
The muscle cell has more mitochondria than the nerve cell.
Which
best

?
*
3 points
occurs only in mammalian cells
more specialized cell becomes a less specialized cell type
occurs once during the development of a multicellular organism
cells specialized in function leads to specialized cells, tissues, and organs
