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.

Water falls from a reservoir through a channel to a turbine. The water turns the turbines, which allows the generator to make electricity

Explanation:

Hydroelectric power is generated from free falling water through a river channel.

The flow of water at a high speed creates water current and the kinetic energy of the water movement spins turbine attached with a generator. This produces a rotating energy which spins the generator and the coil inside.

The magnetic spinning of coiled wire inside the generator produces electric current which is then stored and transmitted through electric power grid lines to supply electric current.
