Answer:

The correct answer is -

1. totipotent

2 multipotent

3. pluripotent

Step-by-step explanation:

The cells that are able to develop or differentiate a different kind of cells in the body of the individual are known as totipotent cells and this ability is known as totipotency. An example of such cells is found in the zygote.

Multipotent on the other hand are the cells that are able to develop into a specific kind of cell of tissues these cells are present and the example of this type of cell is adult stem cells. Whereas Embryonic stem cells are Pluripotent cells that are characterized as the cells that develop into any type of cell of the body of an organism.
