Explain the importance of cell differentiation in the development of a multicellular organism.
Understand that most types of animal cells undergo differentiation at an early developmental stage.
Understand that many types of plant cells retain the unique ability to differentiate throughout their entire life.
Describe how cell division in mature animals is primarily restricted to the repair and replacement of existing tissues.
Explain the process by which a differentiating cell acquires different sub-cellular structures to become a specialised cell capable of carrying out a specific biological function.
