9-11 LS1G Cells use the DNA that forms their genes to

encode enzymes and other proteins that allow

a cell to grow and divide to produce more

cells, and to respond to the environment.

occur by changing the activity of proteins

within cells and/or by changing whether and

how often particular genes are expressed.
