Stem cells are special cells in the body which can transform into any other kind of cell. Embryonic stem cells are the stem cells which develop soon after an egg becomes fertilized with a sperm (which is what makes it an embryo). There are also adult stem cells, which are present inside grown humans.

Stem cells have been used to grow artificial tissues and organs and may someday be a better alternative to getting transplants.
