Which of the following best represents the correct order of maturation (youngest to most mature) for hematopoiesis?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hematopoiesis begins with the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) into committed progenitor cells, which have a more restricted differentiation potential. These committed progenitor cells then give rise to precursor cells, which are more differentiated than progenitor cells and have a more limited differentiation potential. Therefore, the correct order of maturation for hematopoiesis is HSC > committed progenitor > precursor.
