Question 3 • PMHS Biology I Q2

Which type of cell is capable of self-renewal?

Answer
A
stem cell
B
blood cell
C
muscle cell
D
neuron

Explanation

Stem cells can divide to make more stem cells, allowing them to maintain their population; this ability is called self-renewal. Blood cells, muscle cells, and neurons are generally specialized cells and do not have the same self-renewal capacity. Therefore, the correct choice is stem cell.
