Verified step by step guidance

Understand the role of stem cells in hematopoiesis, which is the process of blood cell formation.

Recognize that hematopoietic stem cells are multipotent, meaning they can differentiate into various types of blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.

Identify the primary location where hematopoietic stem cells reside and differentiate. This location is crucial for the production and development of blood cells.

Learn that the bone marrow is the soft tissue found within bones, and it serves as the primary site for hematopoiesis in humans.

Note that while peripheral circulation, lymphatic vessels, and lymph nodes are involved in the transport and immune response of blood cells, they are not the sites where stem cells develop into blood cells.
