Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Stem Cells of a given organ or tissue produce only the types of cells that are unique to that tissue
A
False
B
True
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Adult hematopoietic stem cells, for example, can become red and white blood cells or platelets. Oligopotent: These can differentiate into a few different cell types. Adult lymphoid or myeloid stem cells can do this. Unipotent: These can only produce cells of one kind, which is their own type.

Detailed explanation-2: -iPS Cell. An induced pluripotent stem cell, or iPS cell, is a cell taken from any tissue (usually skin or blood) from a child or adult and is genetically modified to behave like an embryonic stem cell. As the name implies, these cells are pluripotent, which means that they have the ability to form all adult cell types.
