These cells can even help to decipher mysteries such as how cells store information and what triggers them to change. What makes cell A become cell B is still a mystery, but is applicable in our daily life. To understand the myseries of stem cells can allow us to unlock the mysteries of the biological world (National Institute of Health, 2006).
