Question
Chapter 43.5, Problem 1CSC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Whether it is possible that some day to restart human development at specific times and locations in the body and thus regenerate fingers, toes or even entire arms and legs.
Introduction:
Regeneration is a process in which the part of a damage tissue gets regenerated, or restored. Example of an organism that show regeneration is: wall lizard that regenerate their lost tail, salamanders that have ability to regenerate their lost limbs, and so on.

What are some of the ethical issues that arise from using embryonic stem cells?(b) To avoid these issues, scientists use IPSCs. What are the pros and cons to using iPSCs inrelation to embryonic stem cells?
It is a basic idea of human biology, taught in grade schools everywhere: Identical twins come from the same fertilized egg and share identical genetic profiles. But according to new research, though identical twins share very similar genes, identical they are not. The discovery opens a new understanding of why two people who hail from the same embryo can differ in phenotype (physical characteristics), as biologists refer to a person’s physical manifestation.
The new findings appear in the March issue of The American Journal of Human Genetics, in a study conducted by scientists at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and universities in Sweden and the Netherlands. The scientists examined the genes of 10 pairs of monozygotic, or identical, twins, including 9 pairs in which one twin showed signs of dementia or Parkinson’s disease and the other did not.
It has long been known that identical twins develop differences that result from the environment. And in recent years, it has also…
Embryonic stem cells used for research most commonly come from:
A) an embryo created in a fertility clinic and legally released for scientific research
B) an embryo that is approximately four to six days past fertilization
C) the embryoblast layer of an embryo in the blastocyst stage
D) all of the above
