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.


What do Stem cells know when to change and what to change into?

Stem cells know when to change and what to change into based on a combination of intrinsic genetic programming and extrinsic signals from their environment. Factors such as chemical signals, cell-to-cell interactions, and the mechanical properties of surrounding tissues guide stem cells in their differentiation process. Additionally, specific transcription factors and epigenetic modifications play crucial roles in determining their fate. This complex interplay ensures that stem cells differentiate appropriately in response to developmental cues and tissue repair needs.


Can stem cells change into any other cell?

Yes. Stem cells can change into any other cell, through a process called "differentiation" However, adult stem cells are less likely to do so, as opposed to embryonic stem cells that can differentiate readily


What statement applies to the horizontal rows or periods in the periodic table?

The statement applies to the horizontal rows or periods in the periodic table is that properties change going across each row.


What is the difference between adult stem cells and an embryo stem cells?

An embryonic stem cell is young, undifferentiated, pluripotent, and unspecialized, so it can turn into any body cell. This makes it the most versatile option. Adult stems can change identity, but are not as versatile for research.
