1. An animal cell contains fewer Golgi bodies compared to a plant cell.
Why do you think there is a difference in the number of these organelles in the cells? Hint: Which process is seen in plants that is not seen in animals? 2. Medical science took a giant step forward when it declared its capability to store stem cells. Stem cells can be used later on to treat certain diseases if need arises. Along with many western countries, India also has the facility for storage of stem cell and for use of the same for therapy. Scientists are trying their best to maximise the benefit from storage of stem cells. (i) What is the main source of stem cells? (ii) What are the diseases that can be treated by storing stem cells?
