concluding the death toll of World War II in 1945, the controversy over stem cell development derives from the same question, just because we possess the ability, does that justify its use? Scientists believe the process of extracting and cultivating stem cells for medical use may unlock the cure for countless conditions plaguing human life. As Arshad Chandry, a highly regarded publisher of The Science Creative Quarterly, states: “Stem cells have generated more excitement, Scrutiny and controversy than any

State laws may restrict some or all sources for embryonic stem cells or specifically permit certain activities. State laws on the issue vary widely. Approaches to stem cell research policy range from laws in California and New Jersey, which encourage embryonic stem cell research, including on cloned embryos, to South Dakota's law, which strictly forbids research on embryos regardless of the source. If, however, a fetus is aborted for the health of the mother in South Dakota, the fetus may be used

They show a lot of hope in the medical field of study, because of their ability to evolve into most any kind of cell. As an example neural cells that are in the brain and spinal cord that has sustained some kind of damage could be repaired or replaced by the stem cell. When treating for cancer, radiation and chemotherapy can kill cells in your body, but new and healthy stem cells can repair the dead cells no matter
