Q. Consider the following statements (A) Gene expression is regulated through metabolic, physiological or environmental conditions. (B) The development and differentiation of embryo into adult occurs due to the regulation of expression of several genes. Select the correct option.
A) A is true, B is false
B) A is false, B is true
C) Both A and B are false
D) Both A and B are true
Explanation
The genes in a cell are expressed to perform a particular function. Depending upon the metabolic, physiological and environmental conditions of an organisms, gene expression is regulated so that these gene expression is specialized functions. For example, during the development and differentiation of an embryo, various genes get specialized to perform different functions in adult organism.
