The answer is Meiosis because Mitosis is when the daughter cell is exactly the same as the parent and Meiosis creates 2 cells the same and are divided in half to create 4 different cells with half the number of chromosomes....

I think the answer you are looking for is mitosis I feel about 98% confident , best wishes and good luck :)

Bezzdna [24]

Explanation:

In the early days of development, in an embryo, the cells are pluripotent and can differentiate into any kind of cell of the organism. As the embryo develops, autocrine and paracrine signaling between the cells of the embryo causes the cells to migrate to particular regions of the embryo and begin differentiating into respective parts of the organism. This signaling causes differential silencing of particular genes of the cells depending on the type of cells they will differentiate into. As the embryo develops into a fully grown organism, these cells lose potency (except for stem cells) and become fully differentiated into respective limbs or organs of the organism.

A) DNA fulfils all three conditions:
(1) copy itself precisely - in the process of replication, DNA copies itself and two molecules of DNA are formed. This process is very precise thanks to the great number of proteins involved in these process that prevents error occurring and proteins that can fix the error if it occurs.
(2) be stable but able to be changed - DNA is very stable molecule otherwise, it cannot be a genetic material. However, its chains can separate in a short length so the translational machinery can attach to it and the process of transcription can occur. Also, in crossing over, during meiosis, the exchange of genetic material occurs and chromosomes change a bit.
(3) be complex enough to determine the organism’s phenotype - it contains a number of genes responsible for different traits. All of this results in the organism’s phenotype.

B) DNA copies itself. Meselson and Stahl conducted the experiments on DNA replication in which they used E. coli bacteria as a model system. After they labelled all bacteria's DNA with heavy 15N by using medium with heavy 15N, they switched bacteria to medium with light 14N. After several generations, all bacteria's DNA was labelled with light 14N. This experiment evidenced that the self-replication of DNA is semi-conservative process.
