Question
Chapter 13.1, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The way by which gene regulation underlie different morphologies of various types of cells.
Introduction: Process of gene regulation can be defined as a way by which expression of genes takes place to form functional products. These functional products can be proteins and RNA (Ribose

How does gene expression influence the behavior of cells that contain the same genome (genetic information)? In other words, why do cells that belong to the same multicellular organism have a different structure and function?
Describe how Ras and p53 can alter the simplified genetic pathway controlling cell division shown below. For each of the two genes, would uncontrolled cell division result from a loss-of-function or a gain-of-function mutation?
growth factors - receptors - cyclins - cyclin-dependent kinases - cell division
