One nucleotide base is changed so only one amino acid

is affected

• Point Mutation

• Frameshift Insertion

• Inverse Mutation

How can a person's muscle cells have the same exact DNA sequences as their nerve cells even though the look and perform completely different?

• The two different cells become mutated
• The genes expressed in each cell are different

• They actually have different DNA in the two types of cells.
• The genome of the different cells changes

What is gene expression?

• The process by which information from a gene is used to create a functional product

• Large molecules made up of chains of amino acids that perform various functions

• To make a written or typed copy of something, in this case, DNA into RNA

• To control or manage something, in this case, the process of gene expression

Which reason explains why nerve cells function differently than muscle cells?

• In nerve cells all the genes are expressed.

• In muscle cells all the genes are expressed.

• In both kinds of cells the same genes are expressed.

• In both kinds of cells different genes are expressed.
