The correct answer is option b. They receive instructions in their DNA.

The DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or the genes present in the cell guides the fate of the cells during the process of cellular differentiation in the embryonic life of the multicellular organism. The signaling molecule change the genetic expression changes, by which the cells are differentiated.
