Answer:

Hematopoietic stem cells and Pluripotent stem cells do the same thing, and their

Explanation:

First, we need to know what Hematopoietic stem cells are AND their suffixes. (HCS stands for Hematopoietic Stem Cells here)

HSCs are the most primitive cells of the blood lineage that form the entire repertoire of mature blood cells. HSCs undergo a series of binary cell-fate decisions to proliferate and differentiate, producing lymphoid cells, myeloid cells, red blood cells, and platelets.

The suffixes of Hematopoietic is "Poietic", which means Forming or like Dividing itself, basically the same meaning of Pluri

Now, we need to know the prefixes and suffixes of Pluripotent Stem Cells.

In Pluripotent, we can see that there is the "Pluri" part in it, which means Multi, or Multiple. And that is what this type of Cells do, they divide themselves, and self-renew themselves to develop themselves into the three primary germ cell layers of the early embryo and therefore into all of the adult body.\

So as we saw from this, that they both, (Hematopoietic stem cells and Pluripotent stem cells), basically do the same thing, that's why, it is an appropriate term for Hematopoietic Stem Cells to be called Pluripotent stem cells.
