please help i will give you brainliest
You are a doctor treating a patient who has recently experienced paralysis in his lower body. He asks you to give him more information about the use of adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells as possible treatments.

In your explanation, you must use the words “pluripotent” and “multipotent”. You should also list two advantages and two disadvantages of each. (4 points)

Myosin is plentiful in muscle cells, but is not found at all in lens cells. Lens cells contain large amounts of crystallins, which are not found in muscle cells. Why do some proteins appear in one type of cell but not in another?

During differentiation, certain genes are added to cells to produce proteins that enable specific functions.

Differentiated cells release unused proteins into the blood for other cells to use.

Differentiated cells produce all proteins but destroy the proteins they do not use.

During differentiation, certain genes are activated to produce proteins that enable specific functions.
3.
Which of the following statements BEST explains the role of meiosis in reproduction?

Meiosis allows chromosomes to exchange genetic material through crossing over.

Meiosis makes it possible for a zygote to have the correct number of chromosomes.

Meiosis increases the chances of fertilization because it produces four daughter cells.

Meiosis results in offspring with genotypes that are not exact copies of the parents.

1)  Embryonic stem cells can become all cell types of the body because they are pluripotent (that means having the ability to originate almost every type of cell in the body). On the other hand, adult stem cells are more limited and can only differentiate into different cell types of the same tissue. For example, if the tissue is skin, they would differentiate in keratinocytes, melanocytes, etc. We can say that adult stem cells are multipotent because they can become more than one type of cell.

1.1
Advantages of embryonic stem cells:
-They can grow easily in culture
-Originate almost every type of cell in the body with the right stimuli
Advantages of adult stem cells:
-Adult stem cells that come from this patient and then are reintroduced in him are less likely to initiate rejection after transplantation.
- They are present in a lot of tissues/organs: bone marrow, brain, blood vessels, muscle, skin, heart, and many more.

1.2 Disadvantages of embryonic stem cells:
- They are obtained from human embryos and because of that they are destroyed during the process
-There is not enough information obtained to understand this cells completely.
Disadvantages of adult stem cells:
-It's difficult to isolate these cells from the rest of the tissue
It'sts not easy to have a big number of them in cell culture
(these are a problem because it needs to exist large numbers of these cells to be used in replacement therapy for this patient.)

The answer is: During differentiation, certain genes are activated to produce proteins that enable specific functions.
During the differentiation process, some parts of the cell genome will be activated or expressed, while others parts will have it repressed. The part that was activated will lead to translated proteins that will help dictate the shape of the cell as well as their function. This is a process of gene expression and can be activated or repressed by stimuli from the inside or outside of the cell.

3. The answer that BEST explains is Meiosis results in offspring with genotypes that are not exact copies of the parents.
Something that differentiates meiosis from mitosis is the fact that the new cells have different genetic information due to the recombination of genetic material from the parents. This will make the offspring different from the parents. Also, a process that helps mixing the DNA is  Crossing over. Crossing over. is an exchange of DNA between homologous chromosomes (half are from the mother and the other half from the father).
