What type of cell retains the ability to divide repeatedly into any type of cell, thus allowing the body to repair and grow?

The correct answer is stem cell

Explanation:

Stem cells are the cells that can convert into any specific type of cell by dividing it repeatedly. So stem cells are unspecialized and can give rise to specialized cells.

As they can divide repeatedly and give rise to a specialized type of cell they allow the body to heal, repair and grow. There are different types of stem cell like induced pluripotent cell, adult stem cell, an embryonic stem cell.

Stem cell transplant is used to in the patient who cannot produce normal blood cell, for example, bone marrow transplant.

Answer: Stem cells.

Explanation:

Stem cells are cells that have unique ability to differentiate into specialised cells types, this allowing the body to repair and grow. Stem cells also have the ability to renew cells to treat diseases. Stem cells can be isolated from the body in different ways depending on the type. Example stem cells can be taken from donor's bone marrow.

Stem cells therapy is usually done to get the cells for repair and treatment of disease.
