Summary Introduction

To examine: Whether the statement “As development progresses, individual cells become more and more restricted in the range of cell types” is true or false.

Introduction: Potency is the ability of the cells to differentiate into particular cell type or multiple cell types. Totipotent is the ability of the cells to differentiate into any type of cell. Pluripotent is the ability of the cells to differentiate into few cell types. Multipotent is the ability of the cell to differentiate into a particular cell lineage. Unipotent is the ability of the cell to differentiate into only one cell type.
