Solution

The correct option is D twin
In case of a twin, there is 99.9% similarity in the genetic material and the formation of organs in the body. So when a transplant is done in case of a twin then there is a minimum chance of the body rejecting transplant as the blood group and the organ formation are almost the same and the body cell will identify the organ as their self-organ and not as a foreign.
So, the correct option is 'twin'
