Cell specialisation


Propertie

Stem cells :
· s




- unspecialised calls :


1) Self renewal -

they can
continually divide and replicate
2) Potency- they have the
capacity to differentiate into specific cell
types
Differentiation whereby newly formed
during development
is the cell is
process
become specialised distinct from
more and one another as
they mature

1) Fertilization ,
-



unspecialised zygote will divide and
develop into a mass of

Specialized cells via differentiation

2) This is driven by release of gene regulating chemicals called
process

morphogens

3) Cells closer to the
morphogensource recieve higher concentrations of

morphogen ,
resulting in the activation of m o re
genes
Further I of fewer

adapted to
perform specific function
