Stem cells are considered as undifferentiated cells. They will divide and divide forming more stem cells. The two main stem cell types are embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. Only the embryonic stem cells can become any type of tissue. Embryonic stem cells have the potential to become any type of cell in the body. There is news as of 2015 that perhaps blindness can be cured using these embryonic stem cells.
Potency in stem cells refers to the ability of a stem cell to differentiate into different cell types. Stem cells can be classified as totipotent, pluripotent, multipotent, or unipotent based on their differentiation potential. Totipotent stem cells can develop into any cell type, whereas unipotent stem cells can only differentiate into one specific cell type.

There was ethical concern over stem cell research because of where they originally collected stem cell from. They first thought that only aborted babies had the stem cells we were looking for, but they're not used anymore.
