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 happens to an embryo when stem cells are harvested from it?
the embryo is killed
Do babies die when their stem cells are removed?
Stem cells are removed just after conception when the zygote is forming into an embryo. When stem cells are taken, the embryo cannot develop, and so does die.
How old does a zygote have to be to get stem cells?
In order to obtain stem cells, an embryo must be in the blastocyst stage.
What are the three types of stem cells in adults?
Three types of stem cells in adults are hematopoietic stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, and neural stem cells.

Are more stem cells found in an embryo or an adult?
There are more cells found in an embryo than an adult.

Three types of stem cells in adults are hematopoietic stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, and neural stem cells.
Who has the authority to decide if stem cells of an embryo are used?
you do!
Explain how a stem cell develops into an embryo?
Embryonic stem cells (ES cells) are stem cells derived from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst, an early-stage embryo.In other words, they do not become embryos, they are part of an embryo.
What are stem cells described as?
stem cells are described as cells part of the embryo where fertilized human egg cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes
What part of a developing embryo are stem cells derived from?
Stem cells come from newly fertilized eggs.
What are the techniques to produce embryonic stem cells and embryonic germ cells?
Sacrifice a embryo at the blastocoel stage. Obtain the stem cells from the blastomere.
Can you get stem cells from bone marrow?
Yes. Stem cells can be hervested from: Bone marrow The early embryo Cord blood
