Answer the following True or False questions and briefly explain your answers.
True or False EXPLAIN: Most human cells, in a single individual, contain the same amount and type of DNA
True or False EXPLAIN: Most human cells, in a single individual, contain the same amount and type of protein.
True or False EXPLAIN: Once a gene is transcribed, it is always translated immediately.
True or False EXPLAIN: RNA polymerase binds to the promoters of all genes at all times, so that it is prepared for transcription.
True or False EXPLAIN: Some transcription factors are general (they play a role in the transcription of most or all genes), while other transcription factors are specific to just a few genes.
True or False: EXPLAIN Turning genes on at the right time and place requires both specific regulatory DNA sequences and specific regulatory proteins.
