B2.3.2—Properties of stem cells Topic Practice
Practise the defining properties of stem cells and how their ability to divide and differentiate supports therapeutic uses in disease contexts.
How this is tested
- state stem cell properties, including being undifferentiated and able to differentiate
- explain why embryonic stem cells can produce replacement retinal cells
- outline therapeutic use by linking stem cell sources, division and differentiation
