Detailed explanation-1: -What are Stem Cells? Stem cells are unspecialized cells that have not yet “decided” what type of adult cell they will be. They can self-renew and make two new stem cell. They can differentiate to make multiple types of cells. They ultimately amplify by expanding the number of differentiated & mature cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stem cells are unspecialized cells of the human body. They are able to differentiate into any cell of an organism and have the ability of self-renewal. Stem cells exist both in embryos and adult cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -A stem cell is an unspecialized cell that is capable of developing into a specialized cell of the body, such as a skin cell, a blood cell, a muscle cell, or a nerve cell. By definition, “a stem cell is an unspecialized cell that can both self-renew (reproduce itself) and differentiate into functional phenotypes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Stem cells are unspecialized cells which do not have a specific task to carry out. In contrast to that, specialized cells have specific functions to perform. They are differentiated cells. They are named as muscle cells, skin cells and nerves, etc.

Detailed explanation-5: -Stem cells are unspecialized cells that can self-renew indefinitely and that can also differentiate into more mature cells with specialized functions.
