Once stem cells are removed from the embryo, the remaining embryo cannot develop into a fetus because the stem cells are essential for its growth and differentiation. The embryo is typically discarded after the stem cell extraction process.
the embryo is killed
Stem cells in the developing embryo are important because they have the ability to differentiate into various cell types, forming all the tissues and organs of the body. They play a crucial role in the early stages of development by giving rise to specialized cells that make up the embryo. This process is essential for proper growth and differentiation of cells to form a fully functional organism.
Stem cells come from newly fertilized eggs.
Adult stem cells are harvested from newborn's cord blood or human bone marrow while embryo stem cells come from the inner cell mass of a human embryo. No fetus is killed to use the stem cells, but the embryo cannot function and must be destroyed without a inner cell mass.

There are more cells found in an embryo than an adult.

Stem cells come from newly fertilized eggs.
Embryonic stem cells (ES cells) are stem cells derived from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst, an early-stage embryo.In other words, they do not become embryos, they are part of an embryo.
Adult stem cells are harvested from newborn's cord blood or human bone marrow while embryo stem cells come from the inner cell mass of a human embryo. No fetus is killed to use the stem cells, but the embryo cannot function and must be destroyed without a inner cell mass.
The cells are known as stem cells meaning they can become any cell type. The embryo becomes bigger because certain genes in the DNA are activated allowing the cell to divide or produce certain determination factors that will make a stem cell become a neuron, muscle cell, etc.... The embryo grows in size as the stem cells divide repeatedly and then some of the stem cells become actual specific cells.
Stem cells are typically obtained from embryos that are a few days old, known as blastocysts. At this stage, the embryo has developed into a hollow ball of cells with an inner cell mass that contains embryonic stem cells. These cells can be extracted and grown in laboratories for research and potential therapeutic purposes.
No, babies do not die when their stem cells are removed. Stem cells can be collected from umbilical cord blood or other tissues without harm to the baby, and the procedure is typically safe and painless. This practice allows for valuable stem cells to be stored for potential future medical use.
The religious point of view about stem cells is that, since it requires the destruction of the embryo it is against God\'s will.
