Answer:

Totipotent Stem Cells - They can differentiate into any type of human body cell or the placenta.

Example: Fertilized egg cells.

Pluripotent Stem Cells are from totipotent cells and can differentiate into any cell in the human body; however, not many are in the placenta.

Example: Blastocyst cells.

Multipotent Stem Cells - They can only differentiate into closely related cells.

Example: Blood stem cell

Unipotent Stem Cells - They can only produce their type of cell.

Example: Skin stem cells (which can only become a new skin stem cell).

In the pedigree that is shown, which represents Irene's allele combination?

Greeley [361]

The red-green color blindness is a recessive X-linked trait. The females are not affected unless both the X chromosomes have the affected allele. Mostly, the females are the carriers, and the males are affected as they have only one X chromosome. In the given pedigree, the father of Irene have the normal allele, while her mother is a carrier. However, Irene is neither a carrier nor affected. This means that she carries normal alleles on both X chromosomes. Hence, her allele combination is $X^{H} X^{H}$ .
