17
Q

Fourth sage of meiosis

A

Two cells are made containing homologous chromosomes and they divide divide to make for genetically different daughter cells all haploid

21
Q

Research uses of stem cells

A

To test drugs

22
Q

Ethical uses of stem cells

A

Good- they treat diseases
Bad -destruction of Em

23
Q

What are embryonic stem cells?

A

Pluripotent

24
Q

What are embryonic stem cells?

A

Pluripotent

25
What are tissue stem cells?
Multipotent
26
What are tissue stem cells?
Multipotent
27
What does pluripotent mean?
At means that less type of stem cell can become any type of cell / all old jeans and embryonic stem cells can be switched on
28
What does multipotent mean?
This type of stem Sue can only become some types of cells
29
What are cancer cells?
They are abnormal sales that do not respond to regulatory signals inthe body
30
How are cancer sales formed?
The delayed rapidly and excessively to form a mass of abnormal cells called a tumor
