claimAll cellular elements of blood, including red blood cells, platelets, and white blood cells, derive from hematopoietic stem cells located in the bone marrow.

referenceA pluripotent hematopoietic stem cell gives rise to lymphocytes responsible for adaptive immunity, as well as myeloid lineages that participate in both innate and adaptive immunity.

claimHematopoietic stem cells are often called pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells because they can give rise to all different types of blood cells.
