Question

the body has same DNA in the body then y is it that the work of skin cell is different from that of rbc's?

Answer 2

i really dnt know sry :O

Answer 3

thx for having a look

Answer 4

@Frostbite @thomaster @amistre64

Answer 5

np no thx lol , i did nothing :O

Answer 6

@Jack1 @AngelWilliams16 @Mashy

Answer 7

You worded this question wrong... I don't understand what your asking

Answer 8

make it simple :y the work of a skin cell is different than that of rbc?

Answer 9

@xxAshxx

Answer 10

I feel as if your asking why they function differently

Answer 11

yo

Answer 12

If your asking that than the reason is simple. Everything in your body has a different function. They make up the largest organ on our body, the skin. Skin cells help regulate temperature, protect our organs from the sun, and detects vibrations, temperature and a whole other host of things.

Answer 13

the material in that cell and take 4 example liver cell is the same
then y is the function different?

Answer 14

@Carniel
@ikram002p have a look if ur interested

Answer 15

its interested , but my info a bit rusty in this field

Answer 16

Why do the cells function differently?

Answer 17

yep why :O

Answer 18

Ok I think I understand it now. I think they function differently so they can keep the person, or thing alive. They have to adapt to different roles.

Answer 19

Just my theory :\ I don't think anyone actually knows the answer.

Answer 20

Hi @rvc
that's a pretty indept question you're asking, and it's usually answered over about 6 to 18 months of study for most doctorsbut the basic rundown is this: Each cell has a control center called a nucleus. The nucleus contains the information that tells the cell what to do and when to grow and divide. This information comes in the form of genes, which are contained in chromosomes. In the nucleus of most human cells (except for sperm and egg cells), there are 23 pairs of chromosomes.

Now it's further divided after that... Within each chromosome, there are many hundreds to thousands of genes. Genes and chromosomes are made up of long strands of a substance called DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). Each gene is made up of a specific DNA sequence that contains the code (the instructions) for that gene's function. Genes tell the cell what to do. Many genes tell the cell to make a certain protein that has a specific job or function in the body. Other genes help regulate how much protein another gene makes.

A cell uses its genes selectively; that is, it can turn on (or activate) the genes it needs at the right moment and turn off other genes that it doesn't need. Turning on some genes and turning off others is how a cell becomes specialized. That is how a cell becomes a muscle cell and not a bone cell, for example. Some genes stay active all the time to make proteins needed for basic cell functions. Others shut down when their job is finished and start again later if needed.

Some good reference reading if you're interested can be found here:

otherwise do some research on DNA, RNA and endoplasmic reticulum, they should give you some pretty big insights on how cells work, differ and relative sizes of different types of cells.

thanks a lot @Jack1
good answer!
i understood
