Yes. The original fertilised cell grows and divides and grows and divides many times, gradually forming all the different body parts and organs. Instructions in the DNA manages this process, switching controls on and off according to what type of cell is needed for different parts of the body, e.g whether it is skin cells, or brain cells, or nerve cells, or blood cells etc etc., all coming into existence from that original cell which has divided in a pre-programmed way.
