Immediately after an embryo forms, it begins to replicate new cells. What is the most likely type of cells that form during the first few cell divisions?(1 point) Responses oligopotent cells oligopotent cells pluripotent cells pluripotent cells totipotent cells totipotent cells multipotent cells

Answer 1

The most likely type of cells that form during the first few cell divisions of an embryo are totipotent cells. Totipotent cells have the ability to develop into any type of cell in the body as well as the embryonic tissues needed for development. After the first few cell divisions, as the cells begin to specialize, they may become pluripotent, but initially, they are totipotent.
