Cell differentiation is the process of cells becoming specialized as their body develops. A stem cell is an unspecialized cell that can divide without limit as needed and can, under specific conditions, differentiate into specialized cells. Stem cells are divided into several categories according to their potential to differentiate.

Cell Proliferation in Development and Differentiation. Early development is characterized by the rapid proliferation of embryonic cells, which then differentiate to produce the many specialized types of cells that make up the tissues and organs of multicellular animals.

Jun 20, 2024 · Understanding how cells and organisms keep time during development. A classical question in biology is how different processes are controlled in space and time, with research pointing to different mechanisms as timers.
The Origin and Evolution of Cells. Cells are divided into two main classes, initially defined by whether they contain a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells (bacteria) lack a nuclear envelope; eukaryotic cells have a nucleus in which the genetic material is separated from the cytoplasm.
Evolution of cells refers to the evolutionary origin and subsequent evolutionary development of cells. Cells first emerged at least 3.8 billion years ago approximately 750 million years after Earth was formed.
A multicellular organism develops from a single cell (the zygote) into a collection of many different cell types, organized into tissues and organs. Development involves cell division, body axis formation, tissue and organ development, and cell differentiation (gaining a final cell type identity).

Development, Growth, and Reproduction. Development is all of the changes the body goes through in life. The development includes the process of cell differentiation, in which unspecialized cells become specialized in structure and function to perform certain tasks in the body.
