Terminal differentiation often refers to the process where a cell changes into a more specialized cell type that will not divide anymore and has a specific function. Among the options provided, hair cells and heart cells are examples of terminally differentiated cells. However, since we need to select one, hair cells are a clearer example as they are known for their specialized functions in hearing and balance and do not divide after differentiation.

So the answer is: hair cells.
