Question 16 options:

A)

Prior to cell specialization

B)

During cell specialization

C)

D)

After cell specialization

Answer 1

A cell will have a high degree of potency **A) Prior to cell specialization**.

This is because before a cell differentiates into a specific type, it is often a pluripotent or totipotent stem cell, which means it has the ability to develop into many different types of cells. As it specializes, its potency typically decreases.
