In the study of stereochemistry, compounds with the same molecular formula can exist as stereoisomers, which have different spatial arrangements of atoms. Consider two stereoisomers of 2,3-butanediol: one is the meso form and the other is the enantiomerically pure form. The meso compound exhibits an internal plane of symmetry, while the enantiomer does not. As a result, they have different physical properties despite sharing the same molecular formula. Based on this information, answer the following question:

Which of the following statements correctly describes the relationship between the meso form and the enantiomer of 2,3-butanediol?
