    process where cells become specialized in structure and function

    Cell differentiation is the process by which a less specialized cell becomes a more specialized cell type, acquiring distinct structures and functions. This is crucial for the development of multicellular organisms, allowing cells to form tissues and organs with specific roles, such as skin cells, muscle cells, or neurons.
