Cell Differentiation and Specialization

Question 4 • HVA 26-27 IM Biology A

Which process makes it possible for all the major organs of the body to be formed by week 10 of human development?

Answer
A
growth
B
fertilization
C
self-renewal
D
differentiation

Explanation

Differentiation is the process by which unspecialized cells become specialized types of cells that form tissues and organs. As cells differentiate into the many cell types needed by the body, the major organs can develop by week 10. Growth increases size, while fertilization begins development but does not itself form the organs.
