CAIE IGCSE Biology EXTENDED 17.2.5 Stem cells as unspecialised cells that
Practise defining stem cells, linking mitosis to daughter cells, and explaining how unspecialised embryo or tissue cells become specialised.
How this is tested
- define stem cells as unspecialised cells that divide by mitosis to make daughter cells
- explain embryo growth by linking stem cell division to specialised cells and gene expression
- apply stem cell roles to tissues
