What stem cells are obtained from individuals not embryos?
adult stem cells
Do scientists need embryos to further the stem cell research?
Cloning is asexual reproduction. There are all kinds of research that can be done on stem cells without creating any actual embryo or causing the gestation of an embryo in order to give birth to a new organism.
Where do scientists get the embryos they use for stem cells?
Scientists typically obtain embryos used for stem cell research from fertility clinics. These embryos are typically donated by couples who have undergone in vitro fertilization (IVF) and have chosen to donate their unused embryos for research purposes. It is important to note that stem cell research follows strict ethical guidelines and informed consent is obtained from donors.
Why do some people feel that stem cell shouldn't be used?
Certain experiments in stem cell research requires embryonic stem cells that are obtained from developing embryos. Unfortunately, this is an invasive procedure that involves inserting a needle-like probe into the mother and extracting stem cells from the embryo. The procedure carries with it a high risk of damaging the embryo thus causing developmental abnormalities in the developing fetus. This raises ethical reasons. After much debate, interest groups have begun petitioning the ban on stem cell research.
How are embryos made?
An embryos is made when the fertilised egg cell divides in form a ball of cell which is an embryo.
What develops from embryos connected to a placenta by an umbilical cord?
Fetus
Where do developing embryos of animals get their food from?
If the animal comes from an egg it will get its nutrients from the yolk. If it is a mammal it will get it from the umbilical cord.
What stem cells are obtained from individuals not embryos?
adult stem cells
Why doesn't a human embryon need a large yolk sac?
Yolks are required for embryos in eggs because it's their only source of sustenance for it's development until it hatches. Humans embryos are connected to their mother by an umbilical cord, which the fetuses use to get nutrients directly into their blood streams from the mothers blood.

What is the stage of the plant embryos in which the embryos are alive but not growing?
dormancy
Where do mammal embryos get their warmth from?
From the mother's body, - they are inside it while they are embryos.
What do developing embryos require for survival?
Embryos dont need to survive.
When was The One with the Embryos created?
The One with the Embryos was created on 1998-01-15.
What is the study of the development of embryos?
Embryology
What type of embryos have pharngeal slits?
All chordates embryos have pharngeal slits.
