Q1 (Ans):
Stem cells: These types of cells are specific cells of the human body that are not specified but
can develop into the specified cells for particular organs or into tissues. These cells can divide
and duplicate multiple times with the purpose of repair the damaged tissues. The regenerative
property of these cells being tasted by scientist for to create new cells (Breschi et al., 2018).
Bone cells: Bones are a kind of mineralized connective type tissue and the important constituent
of the skeleton system. Bones cells works to form bone, which is made-up of collagen matrix and
the calcium phosphate minerals. Three type of bone cells present in the body: osteoclasts,
osteoblasts, and osteocytes. Osteoclasts decompose the bones for the process of resorption and
assimilation, osteocytes helps the formation of bine and assists in balance the calcium in the
body (Sherwood, 2015).
Blood cells: Blood cells are the vital to life as they perform different key function in the body
from transferring the oxygen in the body to control infection. There are three types of blood cells
present in the blood. A red blood cell determines the blood type and also transports the oxygen to
the other cells. A white blood cell belongs to the immune system works to destroy the
microorganisms and help in immunity. Platelets are responsible for blood clot and stop the
excessive loss of blood.
Muscle cells: Muscle cells from muscle tissues connective tissues, cardiac muscles, and smooth
muscles aid in protection, forming involuntary cardiac muscles, contraction of heart etc. (Breschi
et al., 2018).
