Explanation:

Stem Cells

• Stem cells are special cells that can make copies of themselves and change into the many different kinds of cells that the body needs.

They have two unique properties that enable them to do this

• They can divide over and over again to produce new cells.
• As they divide, they can change into the other types of cell that make up the body.
• There are several kinds of stem cells and they are found in different parts of the body at different times.
• Cancer and cancer treatment can damage the hematopoietic stem cells. Hematopoietic stem cells are stem cells that turn into blood cells.

Use of Stem Cells

• Research: It helps in understanding the basic biology of how living things work and what happens in different types of cell during disease.
• Therapy: In replacing lost or damaged cells that the bodies can’t replace naturally.

Hence both statements are correct.
