Stem cells that replace old blood cells are primarily found in the bone marrow of adults. These adult stem cells are called hematopoietic stem cells and they are responsible for producing all types of blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.

In adults, the stem cells responsible for replacing old blood cells are primarily found in the bone marrow. These hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have the ability to differentiate into various types of blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Additionally, some hematopoietic stem cells can also be located in peripheral blood and the spleen, but the bone marrow remains the main site for adult blood cell production.

The three types of stem cells in adults are hematopoietic stem cells (found in bone marrow and produce blood cells), mesenchymal stem cells (found in various tissues like bone marrow and fat, can differentiate into bone, cartilage, and fat cells), and neural stem cells (found in the brain and spinal cord, can differentiate into neurons and supporting cells).
Stem cells are located in the bone marrow sometimes in different places.

In adults, new surface epithelial cells and the epithelial cells lining the intestine are derived from stem cells located in the basal region of the epithelium. These stem cells continuously divide and differentiate to replace damaged or lost cells, maintaining the integrity and function of the tissue.
