What is a difference between embryonic and adult stem cells? (A) Embryonic stem cells are harder to isolate than are adult stem cells. (B) Embryonic stem cells are undifferentiated; adult stem cells are partially differentiated. (C) Adult stem cells are easier to grow in culture. (D) The use of embryonic stem cells raises fewer ethical issues than the use of adult stem cells. (E) It is easier to enucleate embryonic stem cells.
@oOKawaiiOo hey could u help me?
@KlOwNlOvE @@Zarkon @Destinymasha @Dylan_RiderBRUH @morganchavez @mark1 could y'all gimme a hand with this question?
@Astrophysics could u help me please?
it is either B or D right?
This is not really my field, so I don't want to risk giving you the wrong answer, but I suggest you look up the definitions for both and cancel out options that don't make sense.
yes okay. thanks for coming thou
hey do u know any bio people i could ask?
@Abhisar He's amazing at biology but not on at this time.
@nincompoop Is good as well at bio
thxx
@kohai u think u can give me a hand?
Embryonic stem cells are completely undifferentiated. This is why researchers really want to use these as they are able to differentiate into any kind of cells. However since they come from embryos some people are against using them because they argue that it's testing on a living human. Adult stem cells on the other hand come from living humans and they are able to differentiate only into the types of cells found in the organ they are found in. This means that they are partially differentiated, unlike embryonic stem cells. However since they come from living humans, there is practically no controversy surrounding the use of these in research, however the amount of information we gain from using them is more limited than using embryonic stem cells.
Does this make sense?
thank youuuu
