The telomerase activity is highest in

A. Nerve cells

B. Embryonic cells

C. RBC

D. Hepatocytes

Answer: Option B

Solution (By Examveda Team)

The telomerase activity is highest in embryonic cells.
Embryonic cells have high levels of telomerase activity during rapid proliferation. Although telomerase activity is diminished in non-proliferating sperms and ova, it is highly activated after fertilization and maintained in ES cells and germ cells for the next generation.
