Answer:

The greater the number of types in which it can be differentiated, the greater its power will be. When the cell is able to divide and produce all the different cells in the body, it has achieved totipotency and has reached its greatest potential

Step-by-step explanation:

Power is the ability of cells to differentiate themselves in other cell types. The greater the number of types in which they can differentiate, the greater their power.

Totipotency is the ability of a cell to divide and produce all the different cells in the body. When the cell reaches this, it is at its greatest potentia.

At this level of power they are followed by pluripotency, multipotence, oligopotence and finally unipotence.
