The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question describes a process that occurs during the development of an embryo, where cells become variable in shape and function. 2. **Identifying Key Terms**: The key terms in the question are "development," "cells," "variable in morphology," and "diverse functions." 3. **Analyzing the Options**: The question provides four options: - **Rearrangement**: This refers to changes in chromosome structure, which is not relevant to the development of cell functions. - **Differentiation**: This is the process where less specialized cells become more specialized and take on distinct functions. - **Metamorphosis**: This refers to a significant change in form after birth or hatching, such as in insects, and does not apply to embryonic development. - **Organization**: This refers to the arrangement of parts for function but does not specifically address the specialization of cells. 4. **Selecting the Correct Answer**: Based on the analysis, the process where cells in various regions of the embryo become specialized in morphology and function is known as **differentiation**. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question is **differentiation**. ---
