Cell differentiation, controls of the cycle, and limits to cell size
13
differentiation: cells become specialized through this process
totipotent: having the ability to develop into all the tissues of the body or any type of cell
pluripotent: able to develop into all the body's cell types, but not capable of developing into the tissues surrounding the embryo
multipotent: the pluripotent cell that makes up the early embryo
Induced Pluripotent Stem cells: regular cells that have been reprogrammed to replace embryonic stem cells
multipotent: having the ability to produce many, but not all, kinds of differentiated cells
stem cells: an unspecialized cell that can give rise to one or more types of specialized cells
external regulators: proteins that respond to events outside the cell, can cause the cell cycle to speed up or slow down
grow factors: an external regulatory protein that stimulates the growth and division of cells
internal regulators: proteins that respond to events inside the cell, controls the stages of the cell cycle
cyclins: regulates the timing of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells, when present cells divide, when absent cell division stops
cell bumpers: stops cell division if cell membranes of different types of cells come in contact with another
limited cell size: the larger a cell becomes, the more demands the cell has on its DNA; also a large cell has more trouble moving enough food in and enough waste out
