<em><u>Answer:   Stem cell research can potentially help treat a range of medical problems. It could lead humanity closer to better treatment and possibly cure a number of diseases: </u></em>

<em><u> </u></em>

<em><u>Parkinson’s Disease </u></em>

<em><u>Alzheimer’s Disease </u></em>

<em><u>Heart Diseases, Stroke and Diabetes (Type 1) </u></em>

<em><u>Birth Defects </u></em>

<em><u>Spinal Cord Injuries </u></em>

<em><u>Replace or Repair Damaged Organs </u></em>

<em><u>Reduced Risk of Transplantation (You could possibly get a copy of your own heart in a heart-transplantation in the future </u></em>

<em><u>Stem cells may play a major role in cancer </u></em>

<em><u>Better treatment of these diseases could also give significant social benefits for individuals and economic gains for society </u></em>

<em><u> </u></em>

<em><u>Cons </u></em>

<em><u>"We should not mess with human life." </u></em>

<em><u>"Humans should not be trying to play God" </u></em>

<em><u>Some argue that stem cell research in the far future can lead to knowledge on how to clone humans. It is hard to say whether this is true, but we have seen devastating consequences of other research-programs, even with good intentions, such as nuclear research.</u></em>

What rule of magnetism is illustrated by the lines of the iron filings with unlike poles?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The rule of magnetism illustrated is the field lines are more concentrated at the poles and also about the direction of magnetic field.

Explanation:

  • Every magnet has two pole, north pole and south pole. The like poles repel each other and unlike poles attract each other.
  • The direction of magnetic field is from north to south that can be seen by the iron filling experiment.
  • When the iron fillings are kept near the bar magnet, we observe that most of the fillings are attached to either poles.
  • It is due to the fact that the concentration of magnetic field is highest at the poles.

Which is the main light-absorbing pigment for photosynthesis?
snow_tiger [21]
Photosynthesis is carried out in the chloroplasts which contain the green pigment chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is what gives plants their characteristic color and it works by capturing the energy that is in the sunlight that strikes the plant. Photosynthesis is important to life on Earth because grass uses photosnthesis to produce glucose, which is used within the grass for growth<span>. Subsequently, organisms that consume the grass obtain energy and so on. Therefore, photosynthesis is the process through which energy enters an ecosystem.</span>
