Stem cells are one of the most amazing types of cells because they can make both (1) and (2
We need stem cells in our bodies. What would happen to you if you did not have stem cells?
(Your response should be a paragraph—3-4 sentences—in length.)
Tissue stem cells have the potential to make several types of
specialized cells, but not all specialized cells. For example, blood
stem cells can make all the different types of cells in your blood, but
they cannot make skin cells.
Describe the systematic process a multipotent or somatic stem cell
would go through in giving rise to multiple components of the nervous
system. Use correct cell names and terms in your description. Refer to
the diagram in your reading “Stem Cell Facts” from the International
Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) (under Tissue-specific stem
cells, page 2).
First:Read the article from US News and World Report:
Provide one more reason why Doctor Chazenbalk is doing this research.
(Your response should be a paragraph 3-4 sentences long. Include
references and in-text citations.)
Scientists can now take a cell from anybody’s tissue (for example, a
skin cell) and turn it into a cell that behaves like stem cells from an
embryo.
What are these special types of cells called?
Why are Doctor Chazenbalk and other researchers eager to use this
technique with a specific type of cell to study heart disease? (Your
response should be a paragraph 3-4 sentences long. Include references
and in-text citations).
