New treatments for several conditions are being developed using stem cells in medical waste, such as biopsy material, teeth, menstrual blood, umbilical cords, and fatty tissue removed in liposuction. For example, fat samples from injured horses are used to grow stem cells to treat tendon injuries. Explain how the two defining characteristics of stem cells enable them to be used to replace damaged or diseased tissue, so that the new tissue functions as opposed to forming a scar.

Which of the following statements about potency is correct? O A. Committed progenitors have more potency than totipotent stem cells. B. Multipotent stem cells have higher potency than pluripotent stem cells. C. Unipotent stem cells are different from normal somatic cells because they can self-renew. D. Adult tissues have many totipotent stem cells in their niche.

Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) is a peptide hormone (ligand) that binds and activates IGF receptor tyrosine kinase. Once the ligands bind the receptors, the cell undergoes cell division and multiply. Therefore, IGF is important for the growth of muscle and bone tissues during puberty. The way the IGF hormone works is that the hormone-bound IGF receptor tyrosine kinase increases the levels of cyclins inside of the cell and promotes the progression of the cell cycle. Describe how receptor tyrosine kinase works in a general sense and how cyclins regulate the cell cycle.
Please select a disease (like cancer) that can be modeled through the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells. Why is it important to model such a disease? What were the key findings after modeling such a disease? Please explain your answers clearly. Thank you, have a nice day.
