Cell Differentiation and Specialization — Cumulative exam

Question 15 • PMHS Biology I Q2

Which best describes stem cells?

Answer
A
Differentiation produces specialized cells from stem cells.
B
Self-renewal produces specialized cells from differentiated cells.
C
Self-renewal produces differentiated cells from stem cells.
D
Differentiation produces stem cells from specialized cells.

Explanation

Stem cells can divide and differentiate, meaning they develop into specialized cell types such as blood or nerve cells. They can also self-renew, which means they make more stem cells—not specialized cells. Therefore, “Differentiation produces specialized cells from stem cells” is the best description.
