A gene is coded for only one protein and associated with only one specific tissue type. Is this statement correct and why?

A. No, all genes can encode more than one protein in multiple tissue types due to exon splicing formation. B. Yes, all tissue-specific proteins are only expressed from a single gene for that specific tissue. C. Yes, all genes only code for one protein normally specific to one tissue type. D. No, some genes can be go through alternative splicing leading to the production of different proteins in different tissues.
