What's the primary difference between adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells? O A. Adult stem cells can become a limited number of cell types, and embryonic stem cells are more flexible and can generate many different cell types. O B. Embryonic stem cells can become a limited number of cell types, and adult stem cells are more flexible and can generate many different cell types. O C. Adult stem cells can generate many different cell types, and embryonic stem cells can't differentiate. O D. Embryonic stem cells can generate many different cell types, and adult stem cells can't differentiate
