Written Report Stem Cell Technology Stem Cells – cells that have the ability to continuously divide and differentiate into various other kind of cells. Characteristics: * Simple‚ remain the same cell in constant environment * Continuous mitotic divisions * With proper stimuli/environment it can differentiate into various cells Classification: Type of cells | Description | Source | Totipotent | Can give rise to a whole organism | Fertilized egg cell | Pluripotent | Can

Therapeutic cloning is embryonic stem cells for experiments to replace injuries or diseased cells. Cloning can be used for many reasons such as medical research‚ endangered or extinct species could be recreated‚ reproducing a loved pet that is deceased‚ cloning livestock for a higher quality milk or meat‚ and also

I know that you are a little scared because you do not quit understand but luckily you have a friend like me who is going to shed some light on what I have learned on this subject. Now I know that you have not taken a science class since high school so I will break it down for you as much as I can. Stem cells have the capability to grow into different kind of cells while in the body either early or during the growth. What is so special about these cells arte that they

This pales in comparison to China‚ Europe and the U.S.‚ which each report 100‚000 clients on average. The global market for stem cell therapies is expected to be $20 billion (Rs 92‚593 crore) by 2010. The current stem cell therapy market in India is approximately $540 million and it is expected to grow rapidly. This shows the scope in the market for stem cell banking. India is one of

Official Nobel Prize announced that the Prize motivation is "for the discovery that mature cells can be reprogrammed to become pluripotent". They discover that mature cells can be converted to stem cells. Sir John B. Gurdon was born in Dippenhall in 1933. He is a British developmental biologist‚ which is the discipline of organism grow and

run smoothly. One example of ethics in science is stem cell research. Stem Cell Research is when undeveloped cells are molded from adult cells‚ embryonic cells‚ and cord cells to finally be created as other cells. Stem Cell research is used as a treatment for such problems as heart disease‚ diabetes leukemia‚ and etc. One pro is that adult stem cells are a renewable source of replacement cells and tissues. Researching and using these stem cells may lead to progress and future discoveries in the

From a scientist’s point of view‚ embryonic stem cells have a huge potential to revolutionize the field of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering as they hold the ability to produce all cell lineages including the germ line. This would provide the gateway for the treatment of a wide range of diseases where the body is incapable of repairing itself. However‚
