What is an advantage of using pluripotent cells instead of multipotent cells in medical treatments? a. pluripotent cells take a long time to mature in a culture. b. pluripotent cells can differentiate into almost any type of cell. c. pluripotent cells are further along in differentiation. d. pluripotent cells are more likely yo spontaneously mutate.

The right answer is B.

Pluripotent cells are cells from a certain stage of development of the embryo, we no longer find totipotent cells, but what we commonly call embryonic stem cells which they can differentiate into cells of any tissue, but can not (by themselves) give birth to an entire fetus.

One of the interesting applications of multipotent stem cells lies in the treatment of genetic diseases.

The "multipotent" stem cells, they are more able to differentiate than in a limited number of cells having the same embryonic origin.
