Adult stem cells are much less controversial. This is because they do not involve embryos at all. However, adult stem cells cannot differentiate into as many different types of cells as the embryonic stem cell (which can become any type).

Is it true Stem cells can only differentiate into 1 type of cell?

No, it's not true that stem cells can only differentiate into one type of cell. There are different types of stem cells, such as pluripotent stem cells, which can differentiate into nearly any cell type in the body, and multipotent stem cells, which can differentiate into a limited range of cell types related to a specific tissue or organ. The ability to differentiate depends on the type of stem cell and its specific properties.

What type of cell are stem stem cell described as?

Stem cells are considered as undifferentiated cells. They will divide and divide forming more stem cells. The two main stem cell types are embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Only the embryonic stem cells can become any type of tissue. Embryonic stem cells have the potential to become any type of cell in the body. There is news as of 2015 that perhaps blindness can be cured using these embryonic stem cells.
