Please I don’t understand this Biochem question. An explanation leading to both of the CORRECT answers would be helpful!
Can you explain the idea a little more? I don't fully understand how to do something. Do we need to add a new drug? Should I change the printing method of the surgical patch? How will the idea develop?
This is what I was tested on last week. All the information is already in the question. The professor gave me no other information. Is my professor wrong?

The process involves the removal of the nucleus from a mature somatic cell and injecting this nucleus into an unfertilized egg. The egg then begins to divide and, after four to five days, embryonic stem cells begin to form. These embryonic stem cells are unique in that they can develop into different types of tissues, and scientists believe they can direct the cells to develop into specific tissue types that they choose.
