How are cells from one organism different from or similar to the cells of another? how might you answer the question after you observed the last set of specimens?

In order for cells to become whole organisms, they must divide and differentiate. Cells divide all the time. That means that just one cell, a fertilized egg, is able to become the trillions of cells that make up your body, just by dividing. Those trillions of cells are not all the same though.

Just a little while after you started out as a fertilized egg, your cells started performing specific tasks, even started to look different because of that. Differentiation means that one cell performs a different function than another cell, depending on where it is in your body.

Not sure if this will help.

i think the miocene epoch spans the time from 23 million to 12 million years ago.
