because simply gives a reason.
in that shows contrast. Teratomas is a unusual C in that xyz
Between D & E, E remains as D introduces a dependent clause that refers to the whole composition as tissues such as bone and tooth
IMO E. Firstly, we have "such as" vs "like". We have an example, so "such as" is the correct option. Remain A, D and E. Secondly, because vs in that. I will chose "in that" . I think because needs a causality, but we don't have such a causality, so i will chose "in that". Only D and E remain. For me, E keeps the original meaning of the sentence.
