Explanation / Answer

You can tell her that she can start her work because all cells of an individual should be genetically equivalent , meaning they have the same set of genes, though the gene can be not expressed (used to produce a final gene product, typically a protein ) in a cell.

Note: all our cells contain the same DNA and set of genes. But, not all genes are expressed in all cells. Expression of gene is specific and related to the function of cell.
