An embryonic stem cell undergoes a process called differentiation to become a neuron. This involves a series of tightly regulated stages, including the activation of specific genes and the influence of signaling molecules in the surrounding environment. The stem cell first becomes a progenitor cell, which then further specializes into a neuronal lineage, ultimately developing into a mature neuron with distinct structural and functional characteristics.
During embryonic development, cells undergo a process called proliferation, where they multiply in number through cell division. As they divide, they also differentiate, meaning they become more specialized in function and structure to form various tissues and organs. This process is crucial for developing a complex organism from a single fertilized egg. Overall, the combination of cell growth and differentiation is essential for proper embryonic development.
The embryonic stage in which cell migration and differentiation occurs is known as gastrulation. During this process, cells undergo extensive reorganization to form the three germ layers - ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm, which give rise to various tissues and organs in the developing embryo.
Stem cells are considered as undifferentiated cells. They will divide and divide forming more stem cells. The two main stem cell types are embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Only the embryonic stem cells can become any type of tissue. Embryonic stem cells have the potential to become any type of cell in the body. There is news as of 2015 that perhaps blindness can be cured using these embryonic stem cells.
Embryonic stem cells that are pluripotent can develop into any type of cell.
One major difference between adult and embryonic stem cells is their different abilities in the number and type of differentiated cell types they can become. Embryonic stem cell can become all cell types of the body because they are pluripotent. Adult stem cells are thought to be limited to differentiating into different cell types of their tissue of origin.

The cell's final position in an emerging organ determines what kind of cell it will become
Totipotent embryonic cells have the potential to differentiate into any cell type in the body, including both embryonic and extraembryonic tissues.

Embryonic stem cells go through a process calledself-renewal, wherein they undergo multiple cyclesof division while not differentiating into any othertype of cells. This process is dependent on threeprotein networks, which guide both self-renewal and eventual differentiation. But the integration ofthese three networks has remained a mystery.http://www.visembryo.com/story1122.html

The process of an embryonic stem cell developing into a specific type of cell, such as a nerve, muscle, skin, or blood cell, is called differentiation. In differentiation, the stem cell undergoes changes in gene expression and morphology to become specialized for its specific function in the body.
