Why can stem cells be used to make other cells but blood cells cant?
That is what makes stem cells different from ordinary cells. Stem cells aren't specialized for a single purpose but can change into many different types of cells. Blood cells are already changed and are nullipotent (meaning it can't change into a different cell). Once a cell has become a specialized (like blood cells) it can't change. Also stem cells have the ability to divide indefinitely, whereas the nullipotent cells can't.
What are the difference between ordinary cells and stem cells?
a regular cell is natural ???????? right? A stem cell is a cell that can renew themselves to form other types of cell. Example:Human egg cell/ovum This is an example of a totipotent stem cell. Totipotent stem cells are those cells that can transform into any type of cell. There are many types of stem cells like pluripotent stem cells, multipotent stem cells etc.
Adult stem cells are as versatile as embryonic stem cells true or false?
False. Adult stem cells are more limited in their potential compared to embryonic stem cells. Embryonic stem cells have the ability to differentiate into many different cell types, whereas adult stem cells are usually more restricted in the types of cells they can become.
How are stem cells different from other cells?
Stem cells are capable of self-renewal and assymetrical division to give rise to progenitor cells. Progenitor cells are cells that can further differentiate into other cells though it has lost the stem cell's ability to self-renew. When a stem cell divides, the same stem cell and a progenitor cell is produced. The production of the same stem cell is evidence of self-renewal and the production of a cell different from the parent cell is evidence of assymetrical division (regular mitosis gives rise to two identical daughter cells).
What are the cells that have ability to divide and develop into many types of cells?
A stem cell can develop into other types of cells.

How do stem cells differ from other cells?
Stem cells are unique because they have the ability to develop into different types of cells in the body, while other cells have specific functions and cannot change into different cell types.
Can heart cells come from bone cells?
no, heart cells and bone cells are mature and cannot change into each other. However, a stem cell can become a heart cell or bone cell or any other cell depending on where in the body it is.
What type of cell can differentiate into any kind of cell?
A stem cell can become any other type of specialized cell.

Skins stem cells can only produce other skin cells what does this indicate about skin stem cell?
they are unipotent
What does the term potency refer to when talking about stem cells?
Potency in stem cells refers to the ability of a stem cell to differentiate into different cell types. Stem cells can be classified as totipotent, pluripotent, multipotent, or unipotent based on their differentiation potential. Totipotent stem cells can develop into any cell type, whereas unipotent stem cells can only differentiate into one specific cell type.
What is stem cells-?
Sometimes the bird is able to develop a new migratory pattern, but often the bird will become confused, lost and die as a result. Stem cells are biological cells found in all multicellular organisms, that can divide (through mitosis) and differentiate into diverse specialized cell types and can self-renew to produce more stem cells. www.stem-cell-regeneration.com/about
