S-Cells

are microscopic cells found in most Saiyans.
==Overview==
S-Cells dwell within a Saiyan's body and vary in amount depending on the composure of their spirit. By raising their battle power, a Saiyan can increase the number of S-Cells within their body.
A Saiyan with a gentler nature will have more initial S-Cells compared to a Saiyan with a violent nature. This is most apparent when comparing Universe 7 Saiyans to Universe 6 Saiyans. The former Universe contained a violent Saiyan society that valued aggression and ruthlessness after the wipeout of the good Saiyans, while the latter did not give into those tendencies and retained a heroic nature. As such, the lives of Universe 6 Saiyans were comparatively far more peaceful, which is likely responsible for their increased number of S-Cells.
Furthermore, the number of S-Cells affects the ease of the Saiyan's ability to transform into a Super Saiyan. A Saiyan with more S-Cells will need little emotional stress, if any at all, to push past the breaking point and transform. Vegeta, a violent Saiyan warrior with presumably a low number of S-Cells at the time, had to undergo great measures and extreme training to transform. Comparatively, Cabba, a peaceful Saiyan warrior with more S-Cells, only needed little emotional stress (Vegeta threatening to destroy Planet Sadala) to awaken his Super Saiyan form. Additionally, Trunks and Goten, who were born during peaceful times, likely had a higher number of S-Cells compared to their fathers, which would explain their ease in transforming early in their lives. This difference also appears to be responsible for a misconception in Universe 7 that only a Saiyan of pure heart could become a Super Saiyan, which Frieza mocked Vegeta for after witnessing Goku's transformation on Namek.Dragon Ball chapter 319, "The Tables Turn"
S-Cells may have some relation to a Saiyan's upper back area, directly below their neck, as by concentrating their power into this singular point within their body, they cause a "tingling sensation" and transform into a Super Saiyan, even without needing an emotional trigger in cases where the user has enough S-Cells.
