Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent cells that are derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst before implantation. These cells have potential of treating a wide range of diseases and conditions, which is attributed to the fact that they have; self renewal property meaning that they can ploriferate indefinitely, the cells also have the special ability to differentiate into cells with specialized characteristics and functions. In addition the cells are unspecialized and therefore they can give rise to specialized cells.

<span>The importance of embryonic stem cells lies in their versatility. These cells start off as a "blank slate" and thus can be modified and grown to turn into nearly any type of cell in the body. This means that, beginning with stem cells, one can regenerate whatever specific type of cell is needed to fight a certain disease or replace a damaged organ.</span>

Humans and apes have five fingers they can use to grasp objects. Do you think these are analogous or homologous structures
Ann [662]
Human and apes have 5 fingers that are used for grasping objects, so they have the same function, but they also have a common ancestor and are closely related, that means that this is an example of homologous structures. In evolutionary biology, the term homologous structures means that there are organs and skeletal elements of animals and organisms, that by virtue of their similarity, suggest their connection to a common ancestor.

Looking through a light microscope at a dividing cell, you see two separate groups of chromosomes on opposite ends of the cell.
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Option D, telophase

Explanation:

Telophase is the last stage of mitosis cell division in which the duplicated genetic material gets arranged into two identical daughter cells. In generals, this phase begins once the replicated, paired chromosomes have separated and arranged themselves on two opposite sides, or poles of the cells. After this, nuclear envelope begins to form around the chromosomes. After telophase, the cell undergoes cytokinesis to divide the cytoplasm of the parental cell into two daughter cells.

Hence, option D is correct
