| Somatic embryogenesis is an example of totipotency and is used as a model system for studying embryogenesis. |
| This phenomenon is due to the totipotency of plant cells when they are not highly differentiated. |
| Their totipotency differentiates them from differentiated cells and puts them closer to the embryo. |
| These nuclei, although from differentiated cells, had therefore retained totipotency. |
| For children, on the other hand, whose innocent totipotency protected them from such fears, using this new technology was second nature. |
| As soon as ES cells begin to differentiate they lose their totipotency and can no longer contribute to the formation of germ cell lines. |
