They are not specialized cells.
Explanation:
Stem cells are basic cells in the human body which are not yet specialized to do any specific job yet. However, they can still do some jobs, such as heal our skin. When they divide, the new cell can become another stem cell, or a new specialized cell, such as a red blood cell, white blood cell, or a muscle cell, etc.
