Question

Consider the three different types of stem cells. Each one’s ability to differentiate into new cells is slightly different. One type can differentiate into any cell, while another can only become specific cells. Select the answer that places the three types in the correct order, from widest range of differentiation to least able to differentiate (specific).(1 point)

The correct order of the three types of stem cells, from widest range of differentiation to least able to differentiate (specific), is:

totipotent, pluripotent, multipotent

Totipotent: Can differentiate into any cell type, including all the cells of a fetus and placenta.
Pluripotent: Can differentiate into nearly all cell types of the body but not extra-embryonic tissue.
Multipotent: Can differentiate into a limited range of cells, typically within a specific tissue or organ.

So, the correct response is:

totipotent, pluripotent, multipotent
