Detailed explanation-3: -Stem cells are different from other cells in the body in three ways: They can divide and renew themselves over a long time. They are unspecialized, so they cannot do specific functions in the body. They have the potential to become specialized cells, such as muscle cells, blood cells, and brain cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that can turn into specific cells, as the body needs them.

Detailed explanation-5: -A stem cell is a cell with the unique ability to develop into specialised cell types in the body. In the future they may be used to replace cells and tissues that have been damaged or lost due to disease.
