Although both adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells are used for research, embryonic stem cells are of particular interest among researchers. Which medical advancements are possible using these stem cells? What ethical issues could arise from using embryonic cells as opposed to adult stem cells?

Plato Answer

Explanation:

Embryonic stem cells are plentiful, and they can create every cell in the human body. Researchers can use these cells to create tissues. They can possibly grow new organs in a lab to treat diseased organs. Adult stem cells are rarer in the human body, and they’re limited in the types of cells they can make.

An embryo can’t grow without its stem cells, so people have ethical concerns about their use. Adults can provide consent to donate their stem cells, so there are fewer ethical issues regarding the use of adult stem cells.
