What type of embryonic cells have the potential to become any cell?
Totipotent embryonic cells have the potential to differentiate into any cell type in the body, including both embryonic and extraembryonic tissues.
How are adult body cells different from embryonic stem cells?
adult body cells have a function where as embryonic stem cells have no set function as of that stage. now there are some adult stem cells and those have little to no difference than embryonic stem cells
What type of cell are stem stem cell described as?
Stem cells are considered as undifferentiated cells. They will divide and divide forming more stem cells. The two main stem cell types are embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Only the embryonic stem cells can become any type of tissue. Embryonic stem cells have the potential to become any type of cell in the body. There is news as of 2015 that perhaps blindness can be cured using these embryonic stem cells.
What is difference between embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells?
An embryonic stem cell potentially can develop into ANY cell in the body theoretically without limit to replenish, and an adult stem cell is only able to mature into a specialised tissue cell from which tissue the cell is positioned.
What are the similarities and differences between research on and the use of adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells?
One major difference between adult and embryonic stem cells is their different abilities in the number and type of differentiated cell types they can become. Embryonic stem cell can become all cell types of the body because they are pluripotent. Adult stem cells are thought to be limited to differentiating into different cell types of their tissue of origin.
What are the techniques to produce embryonic stem cells and embryonic germ cells?
Embryonic stem cells are typically derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst, a very early stage of embryonic development. This involves in vitro fertilization of an egg cell with sperm to form a zygote, which then develops into a blastocyst. Embryonic germ cells are derived from primordial germ cells found in the embryo. Techniques for producing these cells involve careful manipulation of embryonic development and culture conditions to isolate and maintain these specific cell types.
How does the structure and function of an adult somatic cell differ from that of an embryonic stem cell?
The structure and function of an adult somatic cell are specialized for carrying out specific tasks in the body, while embryonic stem cells are undifferentiated and have the potential to develop into any type of cell in the body. Adult somatic cells are more mature and have limited ability to divide and differentiate, whereas embryonic stem cells are pluripotent and can divide indefinitely and differentiate into any cell type.
Why do only adult stem cells produce progenitor cells since embryonic stem cells differentiate too?
Only adult stem cells produce progenitor cells because they multiply though the process of cell division and therefore produce progenitor cells.
What can embryonic stem cell that are pluripotent do?
Embryonic stem cells that are pluripotent can develop into any type of cell.
What is the difference between embryonic and adult stem cells?
An embryonic stem cell potentially can develop into ANY cell in the body theoretically without limit to replenish, and an adult stem cell is only able to mature into a specialised tissue cell from which tissue the cell is positioned.
Why do cell researchers prefer to use embryonic stem cells instead of adult stem cells?
embryonic stem cells can differentiate into more types of cells
Why do researchers prefer to use embryonic stem cell stem cells instead of adult stem cells?
embryonic stem cells can differentiate into more types of cells
