During embryonic development cells specialize to form tissues. Mitotic cell division is very important during body growth. After this time muscle tissue becomes amniotic.
skin, brain, and muscle cells.
The cells are known as stem cells meaning they can become any cell type. The embryo becomes bigger because certain genes in the DNA are activated allowing the cell to divide or produce certain determination factors that will make a stem cell become a neuron, muscle cell, etc.... The embryo grows in size as the stem cells divide repeatedly and then some of the stem cells become actual specific cells.
Through what process do cells become specialized so they can perform specific functions within organisms?
Embryonic stem cells (ES cells) are stem cells derived from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst, an early-stage embryo.In other words, they do not become embryos, they are part of an embryo.
Juxtaglomerular cells Visceral and parietal epithelium The above are some specialized cells of urinary system. The cells of the distal tubule become taller and form a structure known as the MACULA DENSA. and this is the specialized tissue in urinary system.
as cells differentiate, they become different form one another. They also form groups made of other, similarly specialized cells. These groups then form tissue and organs.
differentiation
When cells differentiate, they become specialized.
This cluster of cells change the baby grows from pre-embryo to embryo to fetus.
Quite early on !!
Differentiation is taking place to create cells with specialized functions
Stem cells
That is what makes stem cells different from ordinary cells. Stem cells aren't specialized for a single purpose but can change into many different types of cells. Blood cells are already changed and are nullipotent (meaning it can't change into a different cell). Once a cell has become a specialized (like blood cells) it can't change. Also stem cells have the ability to divide indefinitely, whereas the nullipotent cells can't.

The term for the changes that take place in cells as they develop is called differentiation. It causes cells that are not very specialized to become cells that are very specialized.

the answer the material of the division can become specialized
