Why are stem cells better than other cells for helping people?
Stem cells are undifferentiated, which means that they can become anything. A skin cell is only a skin cell, a nerve cell is only a nerve cell, and a skin cell can't do what a nerve cell does, or vice versa. But a stem cell can become either a skin cell or a nerve cell, or any other cell your body has.
What process is responsible creating distinct sets of proteins in skin cell compared to brain cell?
Gene expression is responsible for creating distinct sets of proteins in skin cells compared to brain cells.
How long does it take for one parent cell to become two daughter cells?
In humans, rapidly dividing cells, such as skin and gut divide as often as once per day. Other cells such as brain and nerve tissue divide rarely in an adult.
Does cell division occur at the same rate in skin cells as in brain cells?
yes
Is it true that Humans are made of one single cell?
No. Humans are made of billions if not trillions of cells that work together to form all of the systems in your body such as skin, the brain, blood and organs. These cells also are not the same type of cell, for example, a skin cell differs from a red blood cell as well as a brain cell. But each person can be said to begin from one, single cell that results from the merging of ovum and sperm.

Skin cells have how many pairs of chromosomes?
Yes, any cell of an organism, whether it be a skin cell, brain cell, muscle cell, or other, has chromosomes. Humans have 23 unique chromosomes which come in pairs in every cell of their body.
What process is responsible creating distinct sets of proteins in skin cell compared to brain cell?
Gene expression is responsible for creating distinct sets of proteins in skin cells compared to brain cells.
Does the DNA in the skin cell have the same sequence of bases as the DNA in the brain cell of the same organism?
It is true thatÊthe DNA in the skin cell have the same sequence of bases as the DNA in the brain cell of the same organism. The sequence of the bases should be the same in all cells of an organism.

Why do you think that injuries to the skin generally heal faster than injuries to the brain?
injuries to the skin heal faster than injuries in the brain because of cell division. When your skin cuts it heals faster then when something happens to your brain because your skin cells wear out quickly, so they need to be replaced often. That's why it is faster to heal than injuries to the brain :)
Where in the body are lipids found?
Fat cells brain hormones cell membrane
Where is the location of epithelial?
the epithelial tissue are located under the skin
Is the brain the largest organ in the human body?
No, Your Lungs simply are the largest, PS: skin isn't a cell :P
How does injuries on skin heal faster than injuries in the brain?
Injuries in the brain do not heal because brain cells cannot grow back. On the other hand body cells (skin) do grow back.
Does a cell have a brain?
Yes and no. Cells have something which is called a nucleus. The nucleus is kind of like the brain. It tells the cell what to do and when to divide or split. The nucleus is usually in the middle of a cell. It is surrounded by the nuclear membrane. Around the nuclear membrane is cytoplasm. Cytoplasm has smaller microbes inside which carry out the duties the nucleus(brain) has given them. The protecting the cytoplasm is the cell membrane which is the outer shell of the cell or the skin.
