Are Adult stem cells as useful as Embrionic stem cells?
Yes and No. The only big difference is the procedures used in harvesting adult stem cells is considered legal and safe. There's no need to kill a human embryo. Adult stem cells can be harvested from cord blood or human bone marrow. But embryonic stem cells are able to make more kinds of cells than adult stem cells.
Can you get stem cells from a cow?
You could get bovine stem cells from a cow. These could be useful if you are trying to study stem cells themselves, however most stem cell research is for the purpose of human medicine. For medical applications bovine stem cells would not be of much use as they are significantly different from human stem cells.
Which type of stem cell are human blood stem cells?
multiponent
What are stem cells described as?
stem cells are described as cells part of the embryo where fertilized human egg cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes
How is human tissue and stem cell similar?
Tissue is an ensemble of cells that make up the organs in the body. Stem cells are cells that can be transformed into any of the specialized cells that can be found in the tissues of the human body.
Are stem cells human?
Yes, some stem cells do come from humans. The stem cells are taken from embryos. Animals also have stem cells used in research.
How might stem cells most likely be used in the future to treat human diseases?
Stem cells could potentially be used as a source of renewable healthy cells and tissues.
What are unspecialized human cells called?
They are called stem cells.
When was Human Stem Cells Institute created?
Human Stem Cells Institute was created in 2003.

How does cord stem cells helps people?
Cord stem cells are exactly like normal stem cells, but they do come from an aborted fetus like most stem cells. Just like normal stem cells, they can be used to create any other cell needed in the human body.
Are stem cells artificial cells?
No. Stem cells occur naturally in the human body. However we are trying to clone stem cells to aid in there research.

In what field is the term 'pluripotent' used in?
Pluripotent is a term used in the science of Human Biology. Pluripotent Stem Cells are an important in the field of Stem Cell Research. Researchers are trying to find ways the pluripotent stem cells can be used to cure illnesses in humans.
What are adult stem cells and what could you use them for?
Stem cells are those which could make up new tissues. Eg. bone marrow stem cells make up blood organelles. Adult stem cells could be used to make tissue that could then be transplanted into human beings.
Which type of stem cell are human blood stem cells?
multiponent
What are stem cells described as?
stem cells are described as cells part of the embryo where fertilized human egg cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes
