Stem cells become specialized cells such as blood cells because certain genes are activated and cause a particular cell to develop (Option B). It is called differentiation.

<h3>What is cellular differentiation?</h3>

Cellular differentiation refers to the process by which certain genes are expressed in a particular cell lineage.

Cellular differentiation leads to the formation of mature specialized cells that perform specific functions.

For example, immature hematopoietic stem cells become differentiated to produce mature red blood cells.

First, let's find the angle of inclination using the tangent function.

sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse = 1 m/2 m
θ = 30°

Assuming the ramp is frictionless, the force balance is:
F = mgsinθ = ma
Cancelling out m,
a = gsinθ = (9.81 m/s²)(sin 30°) = 4.905 m/s²

Using the equation for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration,
x = v₀t + 0.5at²
2 m = (6 m/s)(t) + 0.5(4.905 m/s²)(t²)
Solving for tm
t = 0.297 seconds

Using the equation for acceleration:
a = (v - v₀)/t
4.905 m/s² = (v - 6 m/s)/0.297 s
Solving for v,
v = 7.46 m/s

Over [174]

Along with neuropsychological assessment, brain imaging and recording techniques may be used to shed light on relationships between brain function and underlying abnormalities.

Brain imaging is technique used to image the structure (tumor or injury) and function (metabolic diseases and lesions) of the central nervous system.
