Summary Introduction
Introduction:
In multicellular organisms, the growth and differentiation are two important properties for the survival of the organism. Dividing cells have a large possibility to differentiate and form a specialized cell to perform a specific function known as cellular potency. Higher is the potency, higher will be the variety of cells that can be derived from a single cell. After differentiation, a similar type of cells arranges together to perform the same function.

Homeostatic regulation refers to the adjustments that are met to keep homeostasis. Autoregulation or intrinsic regulation results when cell, organ or system adjusts its activity automatically. 2. The Tissue is a group of similar cells with common function. The body has four basic Tissues: Epithelial Tissue, Connective Tissue, Muscle Tissue and Nerve Tissue. 3.
