I believe the answer is c. through science, stem cells are un differentiated cells that can be used to heal diseases all through the human body, similar to a discovery channel episode with a rat, treated with stem cells to form a human ear on the main part of its body.

Answer:

C. It investigates the use of undifferentiated cells to cure disease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stem cells are like cells that can convert into any type of cells, this is very helpful because scientist can learn how to turn them into the desired cells that they need to cure a certain disease, for example if the liver is compromised or damaged, they can insert stem cells that will turn into liver cells that can help regenerate the liver, or the pancreas for diabetic people. Stem cell research has lots of applications on the branch of restoration fo the human body.
