blastocysts (balls of unspecialised cells which become a baby)
Stem cells are the most important cell type for cell formation as they have the ability to differentiate into different cell types and replenish damaged tissues throughout the body. They play a crucial role in growth, development, and maintaining homeostasis in the body.
There are two main types of stem cells: embryonic stem cells, which are derived from embryos, and adult stem cells, which are found in adult tissues and can differentiate into a limited range of cell types. Additionally, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are adult cells reprogrammed to behave like embryonic stem cells.
Pluripotent stem cells.
The three types of stem cells in adults are hematopoietic stem cells (found in bone marrow and produce blood cells), mesenchymal stem cells (found in various tissues like bone marrow and fat, can differentiate into bone, cartilage, and fat cells), and neural stem cells (found in the brain and spinal cord, can differentiate into neurons and supporting cells).

Stem cells are unspecialised we can develop them into any cell which can be used to create new organs and/or tissue
Unspecialised means no specialised function. For example ciliated cells vs nonciliated cells.

Merestematic cells
Cell specialisation is when a cell becomes specific for a particular function. Unspecialised cells are called stem cells. Stem cells can become specialised for a particular function by undergoing cell specialisation to become cells that are responsible for a particular function. For example, when a stem cell undergoes specialisation to become a heart cells, its main responsibility is contracting to pump blood around the body.
A differential is the result gained when mathematical differentiation is applied to a function. Differentiation in maths is the function which finds the gradient of a function in terms of x. Differentiation in biology is the specialisation of unspecialised cells such as stem cells into active cells.

There are three different types of tissue stem cells in the body. They include the tissue stem cells also known as adult stem cells, embryonic stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells.
