The process of a cell becoming specialized
A
changing
B
differentiation
C
dividing
D
gene expression
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell differentiation is known as a process in which cells become specialized. Pluripotency means the potential to become any cell type and is a potential observed in stem or progenitor cells at the beginning of the differentiation process.

Detailed explanation-2: -In order for a cell to differentiate into its specialized form and function, it need only manipulate those genes (and thus those proteins) that will be expressed, and not those that will remain silent. The primary mechanism by which genes are turned “on” or “off” is through transcription factors.

Detailed explanation-3: -The process of hematopoiesis involves the differentiation of multipotent cells into blood and immune cells. The multipotent hematopoietic stem cells give rise to many different cell types, including the cells of the immune system and red blood cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cell differentiation is a process by which a particular cell becomes specific or specialized. In the human body stem cells can differentiate multiple cell types, as these cells can continuously divide to differentiate into different cell types.
