pluripotent

multipotent

None of the above
|
Detailed explanation-1: -Multipotent cells can develop into more than one cell type, but are more limited than pluripotent cells; adult stem cells and cord blood stem cells are considered multipotent.
Detailed explanation-2: -Multipotent stem cells have the ability to develop specific types of cells (terminally differentiated cells). For example a blood stem cell (multipotent) can develop into a red blood cell, white blood cell or platelets (all specialized cells).
Detailed explanation-3: -Multipotent stem cells have the ability to differentiate into all cell types within one particular lineage. There are plentiful advantages and usages for multipotent stem cells. Multipotent Stem cells act as a significant key in procedure of development, tissue repair, and protection.
Detailed explanation-4: -Types of Adult Stem Cells: Hematopoietic Stem Cells (Blood Stem Cells) Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Neural Stem Cells. Epithelial Stem Cells.
