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: -Cell differentiation is the process by which cells become specialized in order to perform different functions.
Detailed explanation-3: -Differentiated cells are important in a multicellular organism because they are able to perform a specialised function in the body. However, specialisation comes at a cost. The cost is that the differentiated cells often lose the ability to make new copies of themselves.
Detailed explanation-4: -Abnormalities in cell differentiation can be categorized into three classes – anaplasia, dysplasia, and metaplasia.
