In therapeutic cloning, an embryo is produced that has the same genes as the patient. Which statement explains why stem cells from this embryo are useful?

[1]
A

The cells carry the same antibodies as the patient, so they destroy pathogens

C

The cells divide by meiosis, so they produce tissue that is genetically varied

D

The cells carry the same antigens as the patient, so they are not rejected
