in the brain
There are adult stem cells and there are embryonic stem cells. Adult stem cells are found in many body tissues such as in the brain, neural stem cells, and in bone marrow. Also the embryonic stem cells, as you can tell by the name, are from the embryo which starts to develop into more recognizable specialized stem cells within three to four weeks after fertilization.
There are four types of stem cells widely used today. They are Embryonic stem Cells - from a Embryo or fetus. There is also, Hematopoietic stem cells what are adult bone marrow. There is Neuronal stem cells what are from the brain. Finally there is another type of bone marrow what is called Mesenchymal stem cells. The difference between Mesenchymal and Hematopictic stem cells is because of there Daughter tissues. Mesenchymal - Muscle; bone; cartilage; tendon and Hematopietic - Blood cells; brain.
6 places adult stem cells can be found are found are hematopoietic stem cells found in bone marrow, mammary stems cells found in mammary glands, Intestinal stem cells found in the intestines, mesenchymal cells, endothelial cells that line blood vessels, and neural stem cells found in the brain.
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

Adult stem cells
They are not better, embryonic stem cells can become more types then adult.
adult stem cells are to big to study.
Adult stem cells have been found in the brain, the bone marrow, and in peripheral blood. They have also been found in skeletal muscle, teeth, and the heart.
Unipotent
The adult stem cells are better than embryonic stem cells in a very few cases. One way they are better is that the adult stem cells can be transplanted back into the adult patient and grown. The body will not reject its own 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
