What is the main source of embryonic stem cells?
The main source of embryonic stem cells is embryos that are created in a laboratory through in vitro fertilization techniques. These embryos are usually donated for research purposes with informed consent from the donors. Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, meaning they have the ability to differentiate into all cell types in the body.
What is another name for sex cells?
Another word for sex cells is gametes. A male and female gamete come together to form a zygote: the first cell of the new organism.
does the sperm cell come from male or female?
Gametes come from both the mother and the father. The mother's gamete is known as an egg and the father's gamete is known as a sperm.
What are reproductive cells called?
Reproductive cells are called gametes. In males, the gametes are called sperm and in females, the gametes are called eggs.
What are the similarities and differences between research on and the use of adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells?
One major difference between adult and embryonic stem cells is their different abilities in the number and type of differentiated cell types they can become. Embryonic stem cell can become all cell types of the body because they are pluripotent. Adult stem cells are thought to be limited to differentiating into different cell types of their tissue of origin.
What generation in the plant life cycle produces gametes?
The gametes are produced by the gametophyte generation in the plant life cycle. This generation is haploid and is responsible for producing the male and female reproductive cells for sexual reproduction to occur.

What type of cells allows mutations to be passed onto offspring?
Germ cells (sperm and egg cells) allow mutations to be passed onto offspring. These cells undergo meiosis to produce gametes containing genetic material that can be inherited by the next generation. Mutations occurring in germ cells can therefore be transmitted to offspring.
What is the name for cells produced by meiosis?
The cells that are produced by meiosis are referred to as gametes. These gametes can either be sperm cells or egg cells.
As a result of sexual reproduction an organism can pass a gene mutation to its offspring if the mutation occurs in?
the gametes of the organism. Gametes, such as sperm and egg cells, contribute genetic material to the offspring during fertilization. Mutations that occur in gametes have the potential to be passed on to the next generation.
When was Dead Embryonic Cells created?
Dead Embryonic Cells was created in 1991.
Specialized sex cells are known as?
Sex cells are also called gametes. Each has 23 chromosomes or half the number of other cells.
What is the sperm and egg cells is called?
Internal fertilisation.
What other name do call gametes?
They are the sex cells. They are haploid cells.
How are adult body cells differ from embryonic stem cells?
adult body cells have a function where as embryonic stem cells have no set function as of that stage. now there are some adult stem cells and those have little to no difference than embryonic stem cells
What type of embryonic cells have the potential to become any cell?
Totipotent embryonic cells have the potential to differentiate into any cell type in the body, including both embryonic and extraembryonic tissues.
What is another name for sex cells?
Another word for sex cells is gametes. A male and female gamete come together to form a zygote: the first cell of the new organism.
