Answer: The correct answer is-  a cell from which a new cell that has a specialized function is formed.

Stem cells can be described as the undifferentiated cells ( with no specific function) in the body that develop into specific cell type ( such as muscle cell, neurons that have specialized function) through a process of differentiation.

They are found in adults ( in certain tissues like bone marrow, blood, and adipose tissue) as well in the developing embryo ( can be extracted from the inner cell mass).

They play significant role in the repair of damaged tissues ( as new cells with specific functions can be produced from them), also involved medical therapies ( for example transplantation of bone marrow) and other areas.

Explain how the equations for photosynthesis and respiration are related. Identify each as being either catabolic or anabolic re
larisa [96]

Answer:

An anabolic reaction can be described as a reaction in which reactants join to form products. In the process of photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water molecules join to build up glucose molecules hence, it is an anabolic reaction.

The catabolic reaction can be described as a reaction in which large molecules are broken down into smaller substances. In cellular respiration, glucose is broken down into carbon dioxide and water. Hence, cellular respiration is a catabolic reaction.

The equations of photosynthesis and cellular respiration are exactly opposite to one another. Hence, holding a connection. The products of photosynthesis are the reactants of cellular respiration and vice versa.
