Stem cells are rapidly differentiating cells that can differentiate into different types of cells (Sadava, Heller, Orians, Purves and Hillis 408). Stem cells are normally found in multi-cellular organisms (Banzhaf and Yamamoto 102). The stem cell is located in the different tissues of a fully developed adult organism. Examples of these tissues include the skin tissue, inner lining of the intestines and the bone marrow (Sadava, Heller, Orians, Purves and Hillis 408). These tissues usually require frequent cell replacement. The stem cells are also found in the meristem of plants. The function of the stem cell is to replace ...

Unit membranes are differentially (or semi-) penetrable obstructions dividing the internal cell environment from the external cell (or) nature's domain.

Water potential is the inclination of water to move from a zone of higher focus to one of easier fixation. Energy exists in two structures: potential and kinetic. Water molecules move consistent with contrasts in potential energy between where they are and ...
