stem cells are not harmful to people. But stem cells are cells that do not have a specific function but as time goes on they develop a function.

What are the types of stem cells?

There are five basic stem cells classifications there is embryonic stem cells, fetal stem cells. There are the Umbilical cord stem cells, placenta stem cells, and lastly there are adult stem cells.


Are people more upset about some types of stem cells than others?

Yes, embryonic stem cells tend to elicit more controversy and raise ethical concerns compared to adult stem cells. This is because obtaining embryonic stem cells usually involves the destruction of human embryos, which some people view as morally objectionable. Adult stem cells, on the other hand, are obtained without harming embryos and are therefore generally accepted with fewer ethical objections.


What type of cells have the ability to divide and produce new cells throughout their lifetime?

Pluripotent stem cells.


Do stem cells make people sick?

Stem cells do not make people sick, because they exist in every person in the world. If stem cells did make people sick, which they don't, then everyone in the world would be sick. Stem cells do not make people sick.~Surprisingly, there is a possibility that the stem cell could ''go bad'' and turn into the cell that actually causescancer... You don't need to worry, though, as long as you are taking care of your body, put sun tan lotion on in the summer, and DONT DO DRUGS!


What are the three types of stem cells in adults?

The three types of stem cells in adults are hematopoietic stem cells (found in bone marrow and produce blood cells), mesenchymal stem cells (found in various tissues like bone marrow and fat, can differentiate into bone, cartilage, and fat cells), and neural stem cells (found in the brain and spinal cord, can differentiate into neurons and supporting cells).

How does cord stem cells helps people?

Cord stem cells are exactly like normal stem cells, but they do come from an aborted fetus like most stem cells. Just like normal stem cells, they can be used to create any other cell needed in the human body.

Cells that retain the ability to divide continuously without specializing are called?

Stem cells are cells that are able to divide continuously without specializing. These kind of cells are undifferentiated biological cells.
