Harhar. Lets try writing a short story....
I still remembered the time I was in primary school. My science teacher was asking the class what a 'stem cell' is. Without hesitation, I answered, "It is a cell from the stem of a plant!" Of course, this incited laughter from the rest of the class.
Of course, right now, 'stem cells' should be part of any science student's vocabulary. However, many still question whether stem cell research should be proceeded with. It certainly was not a question as clear cut as 'What is a stem cell?'.
I believe that stem cell research should be encouraged. Despite the fact that manipulating stem cells is considered unethical to many, research undergoing in this area of science can help to save lives from otherwise incurable diseases and from rejection in transplants.

Interesting anecdote to attract the attention of the audience, however I feel that you could elaborate more on what stem cells are to help the layman to understand.
ReplyDeleteYour anecdote is humorous and does grab my attention to continue reading. However,you should define and explain what a stem cell is as you are supposed to assume that your readers are dumb.
