Why should a stem cell differentiate and replace cells for example when a skin cell can divide and replace a damaged cell or tissue?

stem cells are known as the "repair system for the body". That means they divide constantly taking place of other cells. Like if they was a bad cell then the stem cell would just take its place. Stem cells are amazing for solving diseases. That's why stem cell research is so important- scientists have already discovered that stem cells can cure more than 70 of the most major diseases. Its really incredible


How did Virchow state the cell theory?

Rudolph Virchow stated cell theory as "omnis cellula e cellula". which means new cells develop by division of the pre existing cells.
