Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process where meristematic cells become specialized is called
A
cell differentiation
B
cell derivation
C
cell enlargement
D
cell division
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -“It is a biological process wherein cells gain specialised roles and switch from one cell type to another in an entity” In human development, a fertilized egg undergoes differentiation into other types of specialized cells present in the body such as muscle, neurons, etc.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular differentiation is the process in which a stem cell alters from one type to a differentiated one. Usually, the cell changes to a more specialized type.

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: -What is the Differentiation Process in Plants? Differentiation is a process through which meristematic tissues undergo permanent change to form specialized cells in the plant body. Differentiation leads to the formation of permanent tissues which have specialized structures for specific functions.

Detailed explanation-5: -The shoot apical meristem contains cells that undergo continual growth and division to generate the building blocks for the aerial portion of the plant. As cells leave the meristem, they undergo differentiation to form specific cell types.
