Different Cell Types

March 2009
That fertilized egg ultimately, by the time you were born, is going to differentiate into 200 different cell types. This is just an example at the bottom of some of those different cell types. All of them share the exact same genetic information. All of the information for all of that must have been present in the original fertilized egg. When there is damage that occurs to that genetic information, and the next slide shows a very good example of that…
