    The correct answer is: (A) totipotent, pluripotent, multipotent.

    Explanation:

    Totipotent cells can differentiate into any type of cell, from the ones that make up the embryo to the ones that form extra-embryonic cells. Pluripotent cells can transform into any type of body cell (but not cells for the placenta). Multipotent cells can develop into a few types of cell from the same lineage.
