Stem cells can divide to produce new stem cells to replace themselves.
Stem cells are cells that are able to divide continuously without specializing. These kind of cells are undifferentiated biological cells.
Pluripotent stem cells.
Because those cells lack the ability to divide. Once nerve cells specialize from stem cells, they lose the ability to go through mitosis
A stem cell can develop into other types of cells.

Those are known as stem cells. Stem cells have the ability to divide and differentiate into various cell types, making them essential for tissue repair and regeneration. They are found in various tissues in the body and hold significant potential for regenerative medicine.
Stem cells do not necessarily grow faster than cancer cells. Cancer cells can divide more rapidly and uncontrollably than stem cells, which can contribute to the aggressive nature of cancer growth. However, stem cells have the ability to divide and differentiate into various cell types, while cancer cells typically lose this ability.
Yes, plants have the ability to heal a broken stem through a process called regeneration, where the plant's cells divide and grow to repair the damaged area.
These undifferentiated cells are called stem cells and they have the ability to divide and differentiate into various cell types to support growth and tissue repair in the body. Stem cells can continuously renew themselves through cell division and also generate specialized cells.
A stem cell is a type of cell that doesn't have a specific function. The cells you normally think about make up parts of the body like the muscles (e.g., heart), brain, nerves, etc. Stem cells have the ability to divide into these cells with a function and replace damaged ones. They can also divide into more stem cells. The exploration and use of stem cells to replace damaged parts of the body is called stem cell research or technology.

Self-renewal: Stem cells can divide and replicate themselves indefinitely. Potency: Stem cells have the ability to differentiate into various cell types. Marker expression: Stem cells express specific cell surface markers that help identify and characterize them.
