Question 5

Type 1 diabetes is a chronic condition characterized by the destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas.

Which of the following explains why stem cells are a potential source of treatment for Type 1 diabetes?

Stem cells can be easily harvested from any tissue in the adult body without specialized procedures.

Stem cells can differentiate into functional, insulin-producing cells to replace those that are damaged.

Stem cells are entirely free from any ethical concerns and regulatory restrictions.

Stem cell therapies are currently far less expensive than daily insulin administration.
