#Unit 5. Developmental Biology
  1. Every somatic cell nucleus of an organism contains the complete genome established in the fertilized egg, it means the DNAs of all differentiated cells are identical.
  2. The unused genes in differentiated cells are neither destroyed nor mutated; they retain the potential for being expressed.
  3. Only used genes have the potential for being expressed while unused genes  are either destroyed or mutated.
  4. Only a small percentage of the genome is expressed in each cell, and a portion of the RNA synthesized in each cell is specific for that cell type
