Cell Differentiation + Apoptosis Flashcards
process by which a cell assumes specialized structure and functions
differentiation
blank organisms do not undergo differentiation
single cell
these demonstrate the greatest number of examples of differentiation
embryos
cell differentiation also occurs in the adult which is called blank
maturation
example of maturation is an osteoblast turning into a blank
osteocyte
undifferentiated cells are aka blank or blank
stem cells, blast
four days old embryo that is a ball of cells
morula
a morula is not yet blank
differentiated
early embryo is a three layer blank
germ disk
destruction and death of a cell caused by genetic programming
apoptosis
apoptosis is a blank process conducted by the cell that requires blank
active, energy
does apoptosis injure surrounding cells?
no
cell death due to external circumstances and can damage surrounding cells
necrosis
necrosis does not use its own blank
energy
apoptosis occurs during this time
entire lifespan
example of apoptosis in human
webbing that goes away between fingers and toes
