Embryonic stem cells are more important than other types of stem cells because they are pluripotent, meaning they can develop into any type of cell in the body, offering greater potential for regenerative medicine and research.

Cell differentiation is the process by which a less specialized cell becomes a more specialized cell type, while mitosis is the process of cell division that produces two identical daughter cells.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
Both mitosis and binary fission are methods of cell division, but mitosis occurs in eukaryotic cells and involves multiple stages to ensure equal distribution of chromosomes, while binary fission is a simpler, faster process that occurs in prokaryotic cells and involves the splitting of a single cell into two identical daughter cells.

DNA is found in both the nucleus and the mitochondria because the nucleus contains the majority of genetic information for cell function and development, while mitochondrial DNA is essential for energy production, allowing for efficient metabolism and cellular respiration.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
During the early phases of stem cell development, the most likely type of cells that form during the first few divisions are embryonic stem cells, which are initially undifferentiated and can give rise to various cell types as they continue to divide and differentiate.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
Gene expression begins with DNA being transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) in the nucleus, followed by the mRNA being translated into a specific protein at the ribosome in the cytoplasm, enabling the genetic information to dictate cellular functions.
