What is the purpose of the udder organ?

The udder is the mammary gland. It is found on female mammals, and it's purpose is to provide the young animal with milk for sustenance as it grows. On cows there are two pairs or glands, whist on other animals, such as sheep or deer, there is only one pair. Although not referred to as 'udders', human females, being mammals, also have mammary glands, although these are known as breasts.


What is the lactation period of sheep?

Lactation is the production of milk by the mammary glands and occurs during pregnancy and after birth if the offspring are being fed their mother's milk. The lactation period of sheep depends upon how long they are allowed to feed their young or how long they are milked for. When either of these cease, so does milk production.

What kind of cells was used to make Dolly?

Dolly the cloned sheep was the first example of an animal cloned with DNA from a somatic cell (a cell which is not a gamete/sex cell). Specifically, Dolly was cloned from a cell of a sheep's mammary gland.However, the complete somatic cell itself was not a part of the embryo that became Dolly. Instead, scientists removed the DNA from an unfertilized sheep oocyte (a precursor to an egg) and inserted the DNA taken from the mammary gland cell in its place. This meant that only the nucleus from the mammary gland cell was actually used to create Dolly.

Where did milk first come from?

Oddly enough, cows. I think what you mean is "how do cows produce milk", which is another question entirely. Cows, and other female mammals, produce milk as a natural product of their physiology when they reach the age at which they can bear young. All female mammals have the capacity to produce milk.
