Also called ES cells, embryonic stem cells are cells derived from the inner cell mass of developing blastocysts. An ES cell is self-renewing (can replicate itself), pluripotent (can form all cell types found in the body) and theoretically is immortal. type of stem cell that resides in the brain, which can make new nerve cells (called neurons) and other cells that support nerve cells (called glia).

Adequate levels of muscular fitness lessen the chance of developing low back problems, osteoporotic fractures, and musculoskeletal injuries. Muscular strength is defined as the ability of a muscle group to develop maximal contractile force against a resistance in a single contraction.Muscular endurance is the ability of a muscle group to exert submaximal force for extended periods.dequate levels of muscular fitness lessen the chance of developing low back problems, osteoporotic fractures, and musculoskeletal injuries. Muscular strength is defined as the ability of a muscle group to develop maximal contractile force against a resistance in a single contraction.
