The pluripotent, undifferentiated cells in the bone marrow that give rise to the formed elements are called stem cells.

Pluripotent stem cells have the ability to undergo self-renewal and to give rise to all cells of the tissues of the body. However, this definition has been recently complicated by the existence of distinct cellular states that display these features.

There are two types of pluripotent stem cells :

  • Embryonic stem cells (ESCs)
  • Induced pluripotent stem cells

Embryonic stem cells are derived from the inner cell mass (ICM) of pre-implantation embryos and can be indefinitely maintained and expanded in the pluripotent state in vitro. Pluripotent stem cells can also be obtained by inducing dedifferentiation of adult somatic cells through a recently developed in vitro technology, known as cell reprogramming.

Similarly to  Embryonic stem cells , Induced pluripotent stem cells can be expanded indefinitely and they are capable to differentiate in all the derivatives of the three germ layers.

Another intriguing features of being pluripotent is its reliance on gene expression heterogeneity.

Does peterson's solution to the mutual-exclusion problem shown in fig. 2-24 work when process scheduling is preemptive
Sloan [31]
<span>Yes. Not only does Peterson's Solution work with preemptive scheduling, but it was designed for that very case. In fact, when scheduling is non-preemptive, there is a possibility it might fail. For example, in a case where 'turn' is initially 0, but process 1 runs first, it will loop perpetually, and never release the CPU.</span>

What is happening to the carrying capacity of the bees
coldgirl [10]

Bee colonies are currently weaker than ever, making bees unable to carry pollin. The carrying capacity of the bees are <em>decreasing</em> because the population of bees are also decreasing.

What would happen if we didn't have photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
gayaneshka [121]
1)Without photosynthesis: If we didn't have plants, algae and bacteria  to do the photosynthesis, CO2, a air pollutant wouldn't be converted in to glucose for those organisms and there would be no more Oxygen released to the atmosphere. Less photosynthesis  means less oxygen production and many organisms, like us, would die.
2)Without cellular respiration: Without this process we couldn't convert our food into the energy, ATP, necessary for the cells to function properly. Plus, this process also forms water, and without it, it would be another reason for the death of the cells.
Ultimately, will cause the death of the aerobic organism.

What characteristic of cardiac muscle causes contraction of the heart as a unit?
Readme [11.4K]
The cardiac muscle has intercalated disk that allows rapid transmission of the impulse. This will allow the cardiac muscle to have a coordinated way. The heart muscle has pacemaker that will spread the signal in regular time. The transmission of impulse is also controlled by a few checkpoint like the bundle of his to make the signal to the Purkinje fiber of left and right ventricle at the same time.
