Which of the following best describes the concept of cell differentiation during the development of a multicellular organism?
A. During development, all of the genes in the embryo's cells are expressed at first, but fewer and fewer are expressed as time proceeds.
B. During development, different sets of genes are deleted from different cell types so that at the end of development, each cell has only the genes it needs.
C. During development, different cells become specialized to have different phenotypes even though they all originated from the same cell.
