What is cell differentiation?

• Process by which cells produce MORE cells.

• Process by which cells become UNSPECIALIZED

• Process by with cells become SPECIALIZED

• Process by which cells become old and DIE

What is one goal of cellular differentiation?

• To create many identical copies of cells.

• To make stem cells for use in the future.

• To make single-celled organisms.

• To make specialized cells to maintain homeostasis.

Why are your muscle cells different from your nerve cells?

• muscle and nerve cells have different DNA, different genes

• muscle and nerve cells have the same DNA (same genes) but different genes are turned on

• muscle and nerve cells began with the same DNA (same genes) but some different genes were destroyed by each cell type

• muscle cells are not different from nerve cells, they are the same

What is the difference between embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells?

• Embryonic stem cells can differentiate into more cell types than adult stem cells
• Adult stem cells are pluripotent, just like embryonic stem cells
• Adult stem cells can differentiate into more cell types than embryonic stem cells
• Adult stem cells grow bigger than embryonic stem cells
