Are Adult stem cells as useful as Embrionic stem cells?
Yes and No. The only big difference is the procedures used in harvesting adult stem cells is considered legal and safe. There's no need to kill a human embryo. Adult stem cells can be harvested from cord blood or human bone marrow. But embryonic stem cells are able to make more kinds of cells than adult stem cells.
Is a human blood cell made up of smaller cells?
Yes, blood is composed of formed elements and the liquid matrix called plasma. The formed elements of blood are red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes).
Are white blood cell the most numerous cells in the blood?
Red blood cells are the most numerous in the blood. They are much smaller than any of the other cells. An adult has about 25 trillion red blood cells, which is about a quarter of the total number of cells in the human body.The red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body and help carry away carbon dioxide.Red blood cells are also called erythrocytes.White blood cells are not the most numerous cells in the blood.Red blood cells are the most numerous cells in the blood and in the body. They are very small but numerically they comprise roughly one quarter of the cells in the human body.Read more: Are_white_blood_cell_the_most_numerous_cells_in_the_blood

Why might an adult human have more cells then a baby human?
The adult is bigger so it needs more cells than a baby.
