It varies from a few hours (as in lecucocytes) to several years.
He La cells( cancerous cells) are still growing in tissue culture after several years of the death of Helen Lavron

Depends on the cell. Human red blood cells live about 120 days, mature human B cells (type of white blood cell) can live for several months. Some cells can live for years. In a cell bank, if the cells are frozen in liquid nitrogen, they can be stored indefinitely and thawed later, good to go.

depends on the cell, sperm can live for about 4 weeks whereas red blood cells last for about 6-7 weeks. your whole body replaces itself every 7 years except for the heart which never changes

purely via changing broken tissue. i do no longer think of you may stay previous a undeniable age, seeing as how the suggestions ultimately in simple terms starts off to die, and that's no longer something which you will in simple terms get a transplant for. word to each and every of the folk crying with reference to the embryo's: do you already know the place maximum stem cells that we use come from? no longer embryo's yet from umbilical cords and amniotic fluid. the mummy provides start, the medical doctors ask for permission to reap the stem cells from the (now ineffective) umbilical cord and the amniotic fluid/afterbirth. tremendous stuff. Saving people who're ALREADY ALIVE that could desire to stay with terrible, debilitating illnesses.
