Stem cells are undifferentiated biological cells that can differentiate into specialized cells and can divide (through mitosis) to produce more stem cells. So, they basically have the ability to grow any type of cell.

T cells or T lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell that plays a central role in the immune system. So, they basically help us resist disease.

What type of cell is the precursor to the helper T cell?

Multipotent hematopoietic stem cells


Stem cells that will form T cells are modified in the?

Thymus. It is in the thymus where these stem cells differentiate into T cells through a series of maturation and selection processes. The thymus plays a crucial role in the development of a functional and diverse T cell population in the immune system.


Why natural killer cells are granulocytes and T cells and B cells agranulocytes although both have common progenitors?

Please be patient with me. I've had to look this up. It appears that the blood cells differentiate from a common stem cell. They differentiate into two stem cells: 1. a myeloid stem cell. The myeloid stem cell matures into a CFU-GEMM progenitor cell which farther differentiates into five progenitors for eosinophils, basophils, neutrophils, monocyte, platelets, and red blood cells and 2. The lymphoid stem cell then differentiates into pro B and pro T cells and on to B lymphocytes and T lymphocytes. I believe it is the T lymphocyte which is known as the killer cell. There are many steps in this process and two of the cells also become tissue cells. However, getting back to your original question; there is some process as cells differentiate, (become different cells), from a common stem cells that turns some genes on and other genes off. All cells have the same DNA within the same organism, but some genes or turned off in some cells.


Originates in bone marrow from stem cells called hemocytoblasts?

Red blood cells originate in the bone marrow from hematopoietic stem cells called hemocytoblasts. These stem cells differentiate into erythroblasts, which eventually turn into mature red blood cells. The process of red blood cell production is known as erythropoiesis.


What is the only leukocyte type to arise from the lymphoid stem cell?

The only leukocyte type to arise from the lymphoid stem cell is the lymphocyte. Lymphocytes consist of B cells, T cells, and natural killer (NK) cells, which are key components of the adaptive and innate immune responses.

How are animal cells and plant cells same?

No. The main differences is that a plant cell has a cell wall and a animal cell doesn't and the plant cell goes through the process of photosynthesis to make its own food. ~Naa'Irah T. :)

What are the key differences between the P wave and T wave in an electrocardiogram (ECG)?

The key differences between the P wave and T wave in an electrocardiogram (ECG) are that the P wave represents the electrical activity of the atria contracting, while the T wave represents the electrical activity of the ventricles relaxing.
