Question

Can animal cells grow in artificial medium like plant cells?

Answer 1

no

Answer 2

Cells of any living being can grow in artificial medium

Answer 3

Yes, and interestingly enough  human cells called HeLa cells (Henrietta Lacks) are grown.  I have grown them myself for experimentation!  There are other animal cells also used like the chinese hamster ovary.  I have cultured mouse cells before and seen this done numerous times by others.  People can now either keep or donate umbilical stem cells after giving birth.  This has been used to treat people who need bone marrow transplants.  And when you hear about stem cells, well those are growing on artificial media.  Check out the link below about Henrietta Lacks.  Its very interesting.

Answer 4

yes ,it is done successfully in tissue culture,dolly sheep is best example u have.

Answer 5

Yes, it is called "tissue culture" and different kinds of cells are used this way for lots of research applications.  Here is more info from a molecular biology class description.

Answer 6

Yes they can. It's nowhere near as easy but like most technology that is relatively new, advances are being made all the time as improvements for technique are discovered.

Answer 7

no they can't cause plant cells have cellulose and cell wall to prevent them from bursting but animals they get burst
