Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cell differentiation and fetal development are directed by the genetic instructions encoded in the DNA of the developing embryo/fetus. The genetic information in the DNA determines the type and function of each cell, as well as how they communicate and interact with each other to form the tissues and organs of the developing organism. The other choices, such as in vitro processes, alpha-fetoprotein codes, and chorionic gonadotropin, may play specific roles in fetal development but are not the primary drivers of cell differentiation and overall fetal development.
