How many different types of tissue stem cells are there?
There are three different types of tissue stem cells in the body. They include the tissue stem cells also known as adult stem cells, embryonic stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells.
Are fetal cells only source of stem cells?
There are 2 type of stem cells * embryonic stem cells * and adult stem cells fetal stem cells are grouped into the adult stem cell category
How are stem cells and cancer cells different?
it is just different
What are the types of stem cells?
There are five basic stem cells classifications there is embryonic stem cells, fetal stem cells. There are the Umbilical cord stem cells, placenta stem cells, and lastly there are adult stem cells.
What and where are stem Cells?
Stem cells are of different types and perform different functions e.g. stem cells present in bone marrow form new blood cells bu mitosis . In lower animals e.. Planaria stem cells present in body help in regeneration , such cell are called Neoblasrs and they are undifferentiated cells .
How are adult body cells different from embryonic stem cells?
adult body cells have a function where as embryonic stem cells have no set function as of that stage. now there are some adult stem cells and those have little to no difference than embryonic stem cells
What organs do stem cells provide for?
Because stem cells are the undifferentiated cells, they are able to grow into many different kinds of organs.
Where are the stem cells that replace old blood cells located in?
Stem cells are located in the bone marrow sometimes in different places.
Define the word stem in stem cell?
Stem cells are cells that have the potential to develop into a variety of different cells e.g skin cells, nerve cells, blood cells etc. The word stem in "stell cell" is best pictured as the stem of a plant, where a variety of branches are able to develop from it.
Why is a stem cell different to a normal cell?
stem cells are undifferentiated cells which could be totipotent as well as pluripotent.
Are there different kinds of stem cells?
yes
What are different types of stem cells?
There are three types: totipotent, multipotent, and pluripotent. Totipotent: cells produced from the fusion of an egg and a sperm (embryo) Multipotent: cells that can give rise to a small number of different cell types--for example, bone marrow and brain contain this type Pluripotent stem: this type can produce almost all type of cells in the body; called 'true' stem cells I know there are Endothelial Progenitors, Germline Stem Cells, Hematopoietic Progenitors, Mesenchymal Stem Cells, Neural Stem Cells, Signaling Pathway, Embryonic Stem Cells, Cancer Stem Cells and Stem Cell Cytokines.
