6.
How does an organism benefit from organ systems that work together and communicate?
These systems help organisms carry out complex, specialized functions and
maintain homeostasis.

Do different types of cells have different DNA? Explain,
No. All cells have the same DNA, but different types of cells express different sets of genes.

1O, List the three identifuing characteristics of stem cells.
divide and renew themselves for long periods of time; remain undifferentiated in form;
develop into a variety of specialized cell types.
11. List one advantage of using adult stem cells and one advantage of using embryonic
stem cells,
Adult stem cells could avoid rejection issues and does not raise as many ethical concerns.
Embryonic stem cells can develop into virtually any type of cell and can be grown
indefinitely in culture.
