Answer 1

Terminal differentiation typically occurs in **stem cells**. Stem cells have the ability to differentiate into various specialized cell types, and once they have differentiated completely into a specific cell type that performs a specialized function, they are considered to have undergone terminal differentiation. Therefore, while all listed cell types eventually end up differentiating, it is the stem cells that are primarily associated with this process.
