The answer is B

Camilla Carney · Answer 2

The correct statement is that stem cells were a huge leap in technology that opened many doors.

Stem cell technology is a briskly evolving branch, which amalgamates the efforts of geneticists, cell biologists, and clinicians and provides hope of effective treatment for a broad kind of non-malignant and malignant disorders.

The tendency of stem cells to involve into the tissue cytoarchitecture under the influence of the host microenvironment and developmental cues makes them ideal for cell replacement therapy.
