সাধাৰণ অধ্যয়নৰ প্ৰশ্ন ৮৭
Understanding the Question
The question asks us to:
- Translate the text into Assamese.
- Identify the correct statements about stem cells from the given options.
Step 1: Translation (General Studies)
Text to Translate: “Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the potential to develop into any specialized cell type in the body. They are capable of self-renewal and differentiation, making them invaluable for medical research and therapeutic applications.”
Assamese Translation: “ষ্টেম সেল হ’ল অবিভক্ত সেল যিয়ে শৰীৰত কোনো বিশেষ সেলটৈ বিবৰ্ত হ’ব পাৰে। ইহঁতে নিজকে নৱীকৰণ কৰিব পাৰে আৰু বিভাজন কৰিব পাৰে, ইয়াক চিকিৎসা গৱেষণা আৰু থেৰাপিউটিক প্ৰয়োগত বৰ্তমান মূল্যৱান কৰে।”
Step 2: Science and Technology (Stem Cells)
Key Concepts:
- Stem Cells: Unspecialized cells capable of self-renewal and differentiation into specialized cell types.
- Self-Renewal: Ability to divide and produce more stem cells.
- Differentiation: Process of becoming specialized cell types (e.g., muscle, nerve, blood cells).
Applications:
- Drug Screening: Stem cells used to test efficacy and toxicity of new drugs.
- Therapeutic Use: Potential to treat diseases by replacing damaged cells/tissues.
Step 3: Analyzing the Options
Statements:
- Stem cells can be derived from mammals only.
- Stem cells can be used for screening new drugs.
- Stem cells can be used for medical therapies.
Correct Statements: 2 and 3 are correct.
Step 4: Final Answer
Final Answer: B) 2 and 3
