Q

How does each human being begin ?

A
  • each human being begins as a single cell (fertilized egg), which divides to create 2 cells (unspecialized) and so on.
  • the process of transforming an unspecialized cell into a specialized cell (epithelial cell , connective-tissue cell , neuron , muscle cell )is known as cell differentiation.
