PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -These are pluripotent (ploo-RIP-uh-tunt) stem cells, meaning they can divide into more stem cells or can become any type of cell in the body. This versatility allows embryonic stem cells to be used to regenerate or repair diseased tissue and organs.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stem cells are special human cells that are able to develop into many different cell types. This can range from muscle cells to brain cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -Stem cell differentiation involves the changing of a cell to a more specialized cell type, involving a switch from proliferation to specialization.
