Question 1:


The right answer is C.


Each of our cells contains all of our genetic heritage: 46 chromosomes inherited from our parents on which there are approximately 25,000 genes. But if all our cells contain the same information, they obviously do not all have the same use: a skin cell is nothing like a neuron, a liver cell does not have the same functions as a cell of the heart. Likewise, two twins sharing the same genome are never exactly the same! In these and many other examples, the key to the mystery is called "epigenetic".


Question 2:


The right answer is B.


Cellular induction is The process by which one group of cells engages another group of adjacent cells in a new differentiation pathway. This system intervenes during all the stages of the life of an organism: embryonic, post-embryonic development and during the effective life.




Question 3:


The right answer is D.


Totipotent stem cells can differentiate into all types of cells, embryonic and extraembryonic, and can in themselves produce an entire living organism when re-implanted in a surrogate mother. The cells of the 8-cell stage zygote embryo are totipotent.


Pluripotent cells are the daughter cells of totipotent cells; the stem cells of the internal mass of the embryo at the blastocyst stage 40 are pluripotent


Multipotent stem cells can give different types of cells but only those from a cell line, ectoderm, mesoderm, or endoderm; they are called determined. They are present in the embryo and in the adult.




Question 4:


The right answer is C:


Adult or somatic stem cells are present in children and adults and have been identified in most organs tested: skin, intestine, bone, bone marrow, liver, heart, brain, the pancreas,….


Adult stem cells provide a constant renewal of cells for homeostasis and tissue repair while at the same time maintaining a reservoir of stem cells.
