Label this diagram of an animal cell:

Label this diagram of a plant cell:

Order the following from largest to smallest: 1) [blank_start]Cell[blank_end] 2) [blank_start]Nucleus[blank_end] 3) [blank_start]Chromosome[blank_end] 4) [blank_start]Gene[blank_end]

Differentiation is the process of cells [blank_start]specialising[blank_end] so that they can carry out the specific [blank_start]functions[blank_end] necessary for [blank_start]multi-cellular[blank_end] life.

Plants [blank_start]never lose[blank_end] the ability to differentiate as they use it for [blank_start]growth[blank_end], however animals [blank_start]lose[blank_end] the ability in most areas as they use it for [blank_start]replacing[blank_end] certain cells.

Stem cells are cells which are able to [blank_start]differentiate[blank_end] according to the 'instructions' given to them. They can be found in animal [blank_start]embryos[blank_end] and bone [blank_start]marrows[blank_end] or plant [blank_start]meristems[blank_end].
