What are the main chracteristic differences between stem cells and normal human cells? i know that a stem cell is a non differentiated cell, and can grow into almost any kind of cell. and that there are 3 main types and where they can come from. i need to put this question's answer/s into a context that i could maybe put it into a table comparing stem cells and normal cells. Anything else in relation to your viewpoint on the issue is also appreciated. ~this is for study into a science assignment, any help is appreciated.~ could you maybe tell me also what things stem cells do that normal cells dont and vice versa. What are the organelles in a stem cell, how do they function ... do they have organelles? thanks
What do human stem cells look like? I am doing a biology project and I need to find a picture labeled of a picture of a human stem cell do you know where I could find one? I tried googling it and looking on a bunch of websites but I couldn't find really any pictures of it. Please help. 10 points for the one who finds a picture for me any picture. thanks
Do human stem cells have a right to life? People who say abortion isn't murder, because an embryo isn't a living human may not be aware of the high value scientists place on stem cells. Researchers seem to think they are more important than common tissue, such as skin, bone, or liver cells. Aren't stem cells themselves, the essence of human life in it's smallest form? Unlike common tissue, stem cells have the unique ability to produce any, and all the other types of cells. There seems to be a contradiction here, between the abortionists, and the researchers. The former places little value on minute quantities of human tissue, the latter seems to think very small amounts of some tissue can be the salvation of the human species.
why is human embryonic stem cells used for treating rats in labs?? is it possible to use embryonic stem cells from HUMAN for treatment of rats? why not use rat embryonic stem cells?? is it a typo by the writer or I simply just not understand much bout it see the article at : http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2005/05/050510193918.htm I thought they have different dna sets and stuffs ? that s not my question. I am confused, w/ the ability of human cells works in rats. Should rats be cured using stem cells from ratts only? WILLL IT MATCH (the DNA and stuff)?
Why is it OK to clone an animal and kill it for meat, but not OK to use stem cells from an embryo? A little follow on from one of my previous questions. The FDA in the US has approved cloning animals for meat production, but the government won't approve taking stem cells from human embryos which would be destroyed anyway. Presumably they are more concerned about their food. emp, if you think you are "more equal" than a cow, you need more humility. midnight.... read your own link. There is a whole list of research which is not funded.
Is human embryonic stem cell research immoral? You see, when I asked if people would eat stem cells to stay alive most of them said no, so I'm confused on why there is so much defense for stem cell research... *embryos to stay alive... Chicago Gurl: So, would you eat a handful of living human embryos to stay alive? justdaves: so, you think I care how the viable embryo was created. That is just another side step... justdaves: Then just admit that you would eat embryos. Admit it then, others have... Jacob: I am not in school, and I know many things about stem cell research. And, of course, I believe IVF is immoral.
Have they ever been able to get embyonic stem cells from...................................................... a pig to behave in such a way as to give them encouragement that human stem cells would prove useful? We learned in High School Biology that pig physiology is very close to human physiology. Why haven't we heard about any astounding breakthroughs in pig stem cell research? I am not talking about using pig parts in humans, but rather have they been able to get pig stem cells to help in any way with cures for pig problems. If they won't work in pigs, why would they work in humans?
what is human stem cell research? if you give positives and negatives of human stem cell research I WILL CHOOSE YOUR ANSWER AS THE BEST ANSWER THEN YOU WILL GET 10 POINTS
