Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to continue to grow and divide in their nonspecialized state for long periods
of time (eg., months or years)
although the genes found within stem cells are the same, stem cells differentiate into unique cell types (eg, muscle cells, nerve
cells, etc.) due to

A

Explanation:

All somatic cells are genetically identical. For differentiation to occur, appropriate molecular signals like growth factors stimulate stem cells to silence certain genes and express certain genes. Due to different sets of genes expressed, a cell now becomes a differentiated cell that is functional.

Hence, due to different patterns of gene expression, a cell is specialised.

the answer to this predicament is false, by friend, i had this on a quiz, and i got it wrong, so i learned it, cos i was gonna have it on a test, and i got it right

protist eukaryotes that are not plants, animals, or fungi ("misfits")
