5 0

Cellular differentiation describes how different cells perform different processes and have unique functions. There are at least 250 cells in the human body and each one plays a different role, and <em>all</em> of them are crucial to the body's ability to maintain homeostasis. For example, liver cells produce proteins that are important in blood clotting. If these cells are damaged, blood will not clot properly. If blood does not clot, a body cannot maintain homeostasis and the person will fall ill.

TL;DR: every cell plays its part and keeps the organism alive.

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Human activities affect the flow of energy and matter in an ecosystem and alter the energy balance in ecosystems through the unsustainable nature of what they do.  The energy flow is affected in several ways as a result of pollution, overpopulation, deforestation, burning fossil fuels, etc. Such changes have stimulated soil erosion, climate change, causing water unfit to consume, poor quality of air and so on. When humans cause a change in the energy balance, they impact the ability of the ecosystem to respond and adapt to changes in the environment. It is like getting a cut, but it never heals and grows bigger instead.
