18. Induced pluripotent stem cells are cells from adults that have been reprogrammed to imitate embryonic stem cells. Why might
induced pluripotent stem cells be a valuaale tool in science and medicine?
O A. Induced pluripotent stem cells can become any cell type in the body, but are from adults, avoiding the controversies associated with
embryonic stem cells
O B. Induced pluripotent stem cells are the only type of stem cell that's truly pluripotent.
O C. Induced pluripotent stem cells may become any cell type in the body, but are fraught with ethical questions over their use.
O D. Induced pluripotent stem cells are derived from adult cells and therefore may have DNA abnormalities, allowing scientists to understand the
effects of sun exposure or toxins on DNA

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Due to ethical problems in using embryonic stem cells of killing a life, ipsc are used by reporgramming a adult stem cell by using appropriate molecular signals to 'reverse the silenced genes', reverting the adult stem cell back to being a multipotent or pluripotent stem cells.
