Cell Differentiation starts at 8 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Cell Differentiation.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 8
A scientist observes a group of cells under a microscope. Some cells have long extensions, while others are round and flat. What process has likely occurred?
A student claims that all cells in a plant leaf are identical. Is this correct? Explain your answer.
Describe one example of a specialized cell and its function.
Describe the difference between a stem cell and a specialized cell.
Describe what happens to a cell during differentiation.
Describe what would happen if cell differentiation did not occur in a multicellular organism.
Explain how gene expression leads to cell differentiation.
Explain why cell differentiation is necessary for multicellular organisms.
Explain why muscle cells and nerve cells look different even though they have the same DNA.
Explain why red blood cells do not have a nucleus.
What is cell differentiation?
What is the main role of gene expression in cell differentiation?
A researcher observes that when a certain gene is mutated, blood cells fail to develop properly in an animal. What does this suggest about the role of genes in cell differentiation?
A scientist is studying two groups of cells from the same organism. Group A cells can develop into any cell type, while Group B cells can only become muscle or nerve cells. What is the main difference between Group A and Group B cells?
Describe how cell differentiation contributes to the formation of tissues and organs in multicellular organisms.
Explain how environmental factors, such as temperature or chemicals, can influence cell differentiation in developing organisms.
