3 functions of muscle tissue. 1) movement a. of whole body or body parts (skeletal) b. of substances w/in body (cardiac-pumps blood, smooth-substances move through hollow organs) 2) heat production (mostly skeletal) 3) maintain posture and stabilize joints (skeletal).
Human embryonic stem cells in cell culture. Pluripotent: Embryonic stem cells are able to develop into any type of cell, excepting those of the placenta. Only embryonic stem cells of the morula are totipotent: able to develop into any type of cell, including those of the placenta. Embryonic stem cells (ES cells) are pluripotent stem cells derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst, an early-stage preimplantation embryo. Human embryos reach the blastocyst stage 4â5 days post fertilization, at which time they consist of 50â150 cells.
What is the different bettween adult stem cell in embryonic stem cells. 1. Adult stem cells live and are found int the tissue of the organism. 2. embryonic stem cell do not live or found in the embryol, they are derive from a ealry embryo in the blastocyst stage.
