How is the cloning of genes different from the cloning mammals?

The difference between cloning genes and cloning a mammal is that when a gene is cloned, it is typically removed from a DNA sequence and inserted into an organism. The cloning of a mammal, however, is when a somatic cells from the mammal are cloned to produce a "copy" of the mammal.


Why can genes be considered derived characters?

Genes can be considered derived characters because they are inherited traits that have evolved over time, showing differences from ancestral forms. By comparing genes across different species, scientists can determine relationships and evolutionary history. Derived characters in genes can help track the divergence and relationships between organisms.
