Stem cells and cell organisation

What distinguishes stem cells from other cells?

• They are smaller in size

• They are specialised for a specific function

• They are unspecialised

• They have a shorter lifespan

What term is used to describe the ability of stem cells to produce more stem cells identical to themselves?

• specialisation

• potentcy

• differentaition

• self renewal

What term is used to describe the ability of stem cells to become different types of cells?

• specialisation

• potentcy

• differentaition

• self renewal

Stem cells differentiate into specialized cells to

• Increase their size

• Maintain self-renewal

• Form tissues and organs

• Eliminate waste products

What is the primary function of tissues in multicellular organisms?

• To provide structural support

• To transport nutrients

• To carry out specific functions

• To store energy

Organs in multicellular organisms are composed of:

• only one type of cell

• only one type of tissue

• systems of organs

• multiple types of tissue

The term "systems" in the hierarchical organisation of multicellular organisms refers to:

• The interactions between organs

• Groups of cells working together

• The basic functional units of life

• The process of cell differentiation

How does the structural organization of cells, tissues, organs, and systems contribute to the overall function of multicellular organisms?
