Summary Introduction
To determine:
The three potential sources of stem cells.
Introduction:
Stem cell has the ability to continuously divide and differentiate into other kind of cells.
They are different from other cells of the body in that they have the ability to differentiate into other cells types. This ability allows them to replace cells that have died. With this ability they have been used to replace defective cells in patients who have certain disease or defects.
