Question

question: which of the following are a type of stem cell? answer options: select one of four induced pluripotent stem cells adult specialized cells embryonic specialized cells gamete stem cells

Explanation:

• Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are a recognized type of stem cell, created by reprogramming adult cells to have pluripotent properties.
• Adult specialized cells are already differentiated and not stem cells.
• Embryonic specialized cells are differentiated embryonic cells, not stem cells (embryonic stem cells are undifferentiated, but "embryonic specialized cells" are specialized).
• "Gamete stem cells" is not a standard term for a major stem cell type (germ cells have their own precursors, but the term here is incorrect or non - standard). So the correct option is Induced pluripotent stem cells.

Answer:

Induced pluripotent stem cells
