Multiple cell types, including neurons and glia, can arise from the same precursor cells. Because of this potential to give rise to many different types of tissue, these precursor cells are also called which of the following?A) Neuroblasts B) Newly generated neurons C) Daughter cellsD) Neural stem cells

D) Neural stem cells

Explanation:

Neural stem cells are multipotent cells that possess the ability to give rise to offspring cells that grow and differentiate into three major cells that make up the central nervous system. They are present during the development of the embryo and also found to be developing in the adult brain as growth continues although life. The neural stem cells are found are in the zones of the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, the striatum of basal ganglia in the cerebral hemispheres, the neocortex of the convoluted cerebral cortex, and in the spinal cord.
