Sample answer: Even though most cells carry all the same DNA, cells can differentiate among the genes and use only certain ones. Depending on which genes are activated, a cell can differentiate into a muscle cell, neuron, or red blood cell.

In part B of the diagram, DNA condenses into tightly coiled chromosomes. 20. Sample answer: In part B, the chromsomes are duplicated and consist of two sister chromatids. In part D, the sister chromatids have separated from each other. 21. Accept any one: muscle cell, neuron, red blood cell. 22. capable of developing into a complete organism or differentiating into any of its cells or tissues 23. fertilized egg cells 24. The most specialized cells are muscle cells, neurons, and red blood cells. They can give rise to other closely related, specialized cells.
