The given statement is False.

Gene ( segment of DNA that corresponds to particular protein) expression is a process by which a protein product is produced through transcription and translation of gene.

Gene expression is highly regulated process, which means that genes are only turned on whenever their protein product is required by the body ( for instance, insulin gene is turned on only when blood glucose level is high in the body).

Moreover, particular genes are activated in specific cells and other genes are turned off in order to make cell function in a specific way. Also, there are non protein coding genes in the cells that do not code for any protein.

Thus, given statement is False.
