Answer:

Differentiation.

Explanation:

Cell differentiation may be defined as the process in which the cell changes into another cell type from the one cell type. Differentiation is continuous in stem cells of the adults.

During the process of cell differentiation, the cells become restricted to their potential development. The cells determines its fate and start performing a specific function in the cell differentiation. Specific proteins and transcription factors are required for the process of cell differentiation.

Thus, the correct answer is option (d).

Answer:

d. differentiation

Explanation:

Developmental potential refers to the ability of a cell to form other cell types. A cell may retain the ability to form other cell types or become specialized to perform specific functions. The process of specialization of cells into specific cell types generally limits their ability to form all cell types and is called differentiation.

For example, differentiation of RBCs include loss of organelles and making space for hemoglobin protein. Mature RBCs loose nucleus and can not divide at all.

The epidermis is composed of five cell types. match each type to its description.

WITCHER [35]

Listed under are the 5 different type of cells found in the epidermis and their description:

1. Stem cells
These are what you call undifferentiated cells. These are cells found in the stratum basale, which is the deapest layer of the epidermis. These cells divide to create keratinocytes.

2. Keratinocytes
The make up the majority of the cells in the epidermis. They synthesize keratin which are proteins that make up your hair, skin, and nails. They can also be found in other organs inside your body.

3. Melanocytes
These cells can only be found in the stratum basale. They synthesize melanin with a brown to black pigment. These dark pigments serves as protection for the skin from harmful UV rays.

4.Merkel cells
Merkel cells are also known as tactile cells. They are the sensory receptor for touch. Merkel cells and the nerve fiber together are called the Merkel disc.

5. Dentritic cells
They are also known as Langerhans cells. They can be found in two layers of the epidermis: the stratum spinosm; and stratum granulosm. They are what you call macrophages that come from the bone marrow. They serve as immune cells that provide protection against toxins, microbes and other pathogens that try to penetrate the skin.

Hope you find some information above that will help you.
