A germ cell is a haploid cell (having only 23 chromosomes), such as a sperm or an egg. An embryonic stem cell is a diploid cell (containing 46 chromosomes) and is found in the inner cell mass of an embryo. This type of cell is pluripotent, meaning it can form any cell or tissue type.

What are the techniques to produce embryonic stem cells and embryonic germ cells?
Embryonic stem cells are typically derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst, a very early stage of embryonic development. This involves in vitro fertilization of an egg cell with sperm to form a zygote, which then develops into a blastocyst. Embryonic germ cells are derived from primordial germ cells found in the embryo. Techniques for producing these cells involve careful manipulation of embryonic development and culture conditions to isolate and maintain these specific cell types.
How are adult body cells different 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
Where is active telomerase found in?
Active telomerase is commonly found in stem cells, germ cells, and cancer cells. It is also present in some cells undergoing rapid proliferation, such as embryonic cells.
Where does muscle tissue develop?
Muscle tissues are derived from the mesodermal layer of the embryonic germ cells through a process called myogenesis.
Which germ layer do the cells of the nervous system differentiate?
Cells of the nervous system differentiate from the ectoderm germ layer during embryonic development. The ectoderm gives rise to not only the nervous system, but also to structures such as the skin and hair.

What is the order of occurrence of the pre-embryonic structures?
Preembryonic forms are the zygote (fertilized egg), morula (a solid ball of cells), blastocyst (hollow ball with a single germ layer), and bilaminar embryonic disc(with two germ layers).
What marks the beginning of germ development in an embryo?
The beginning of germ development in an embryo is marked by the formation of primordial germ cells through a process called germ cell specification. These cells are the precursors to sperm and egg cells and are essential for sexual reproduction. Germ cell specification typically occurs during early embryonic development.

What is another name for embryonic layers?
Germ layers.
What is the embryonic origin of the skin?
The skin originates from the ectoderm layer of the embryonic germ cells. During development, the ectoderm gives rise to the epidermis (outer layer of the skin) and its appendages such as hair follicles, sweat glands, and nails.
Are melanocytes produced from ectoderm?
Yes, melanocytes are derived from the neural crest cells, which are a transient structure that arises from the ectodermal germ layer during embryonic development.
What germ layer is the tongue?
The tongue is derived from the ectoderm germ layer during early embryonic development.
What are female germ cells called?
ovaries. it's the female germ(gamete) cells. :)
