Question

the primitive or unspecialized cells that can be stimulated to undergo cell division to produce a daughter cell that will specialize are called ________. answer options: target cells, growth cells, stem cells, developing cells, i dont know yet

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall the definition of cells that are primitive/unspecialized and can divide to produce specialized daughter cells. Stem cells are defined as undifferentiated (unspecialized) cells that can self - renew and differentiate into specialized cell types. Target cells are cells that a signal (like a hormone) acts on, growth cells is not a standard term for this concept, and developing cells is too vague. So the correct term is stem cells.

Answer:

C. stem cells (assuming the options are labeled A - E with C being stem cells; if the original options have a different label, adjust the label but the text is "stem cells")
