______ is the ability of a single cell to produce a fertile, adult individual.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Totipotency.
- The ability of an isolated cell to develop into a fertile adult is proof of totipotency in this sense.
- A totipotent cell is also a one-cell embryo, meaning it is able to produce a developmentally coordinated sequence at the global level.
