What is the difference between potencies of stem cells?
To understand potency we jave to know that the Potency of a stem cell relates to its ability to differentiate. Currently the most potent cell lines are: • Totipotent stem cells that can differentiate into embryonic and extraembryonic cell types. • Pluripotent cells can differentiate into nearly all cells. • Multipotent cells can differentiate into a number of cells, but only those of a closely related family of cells • Oligopotent cells can differentiate into a few cell types like myeloid stem cells • Unipotent cells can only produce one cell type, themselves. source:http://stemcellthailand.org/differentiation/
Why are Stem Cells important in the Developing Embryo?
Stem cells are pluripotent, that is, they have the ability to differentiate and become any cell type in the body.
What type of stem cell can differentiate into most types of cells?
Unipiot is the right one trust me
Which type of stem cell is less controversal?
Adult stem cells are much less controversial. This is because they do not involve embryos at all. However, adult stem cells cannot differentiate into as many different types of cells as the embryonic stem cell (which can become any type).
Can a muscle cell split into two nerve cells?
Stem cells (that may differentiate into any cell) turn into nerve and muscle cells. Once they differentiate to the different type of it cannot switch from one type of cell to another. So, in short, the answer is "no."

Stem cells
Which type of stem cell differentiate into the fewest types of cells?
unipotent
What type of cell can differentiate into any kind of cell?
A stem cell can become any other type of specialized cell.

What happens when stem cell guy gets a signal?
when a stem cell guy gets a signal, it begins to differentiate or change into his destined cell type

totipotent (apex)
What type of cell has the potential to differentiate to form adult cells?
stem cells
