The advantage of homologous recombination is that ________.

A. following a splice with Cas9, the ends are joined back together with the induction of a frameshift mutation resulting in an inactive protein B. following a splice with a restriction enzyme, the sticky ends can be combined with a piece of donor DNA that has the same sticky ends C. genes from two different sources can be joined together when the wild-types contain homology between the two molecules, allowing DNA ligase to join the naturally-occurring sticky ends D. following a splice with Cas9, the ends of the chromosome can be seamlessly joined with a piece of donor DNA that has been engineering to contain flanking sequences homologous to the broken chromosome ends
