Are your heart cells the same as your brain cells? Why or why not?(1 point)

No, different sections of the cells' DNA are "tuned on" causing heart cells to have different characteristics from brain cells.

Yes, the heart cell and the brain cell have the same function, therefore they are identical.

Yes, during mitosis, the resulting daughter cells are identical which means that all cells in the body are the same.

No, heart cells are stem cells that replicate and create brain cells, therefore they are two different types of cells.

No, heart cells and brain cells are different types of cells with distinct structures and functions. While both types of cells are derived from stem cells, they differentiate into specialized cells with unique characteristics. Heart cells are responsible for pumping blood throughout the body, while brain cells are involved in processing and transmitting information within the nervous system. Therefore, the differences in their functions require distinct genetic and structural characteristics.
