There are three kinds of stem Cells: Totipotent (literally al powerful), a newly fertilized egg, Pluripotent (Pluri-Many), an embryo with 50-100 cells, beings to differentiate, Multipotent (Range of Cell Types), obtained from fetal and mature human. This book covers sources, properties of different types of stem cells.A Clone: There are two types of Cloning, derived from nuclear transfer technology.
