How does breeding differ from gentic engineering?
Breeding is more natural that Genetic engineering. Breeding is simply that you take sperm from the male animal of that species and inserted into the female either naturally or by artificial insemination. Genetic Engineering is when add genes from different things into that animal. This is usually done in a lab.
Is a cama a hybrid animal used for increasing food production?
No. A cama is a hybrid animal. Produced by artificial insemination of a female llama with male camel sperm, the intent was to develop an animal the size of a camel with a milder temperament and was capable of producing wool like a llama. Camas have only been produced at the Camel Reproduction Centre of Dubai.
Is there a such thing as horse eggs?
A mare or filly produces eggs in their ovaries, just like most any other female animal. These eggs are released for fertilization or can be flushed out using a vaginal lavage which allows embryo transfer and artificial insemination to occur.
What is oestrus?
Oestrus synchronisation (UK) or estrus synchronization (US), is when female mammals go into "heat" at about same time. This is induced in cattle to be able to perform artificial insemination or embryo transfer at about the same time for the whole herd.
What causes STDs in the artificial insemination?
Campylobacter foetus also known as Vibrio foetus that is why it called as vibriosis, transmitted between cows through bull ,animal may show following signs, the animal abort upto fifth mounth of pregnancy, and become repeater ,after few mounth amimal become immuneand will resume normal fertility,the organism is well sensitive to anti biotic, its growth can easily be checked by adding antibiotic in semen for artificial insemination.Trichomonas foetus,this is porozoan organism, live in bovine prepuce, ,vagina,and uterus,infected animal may show irregular cycle, low conception rate, vulval discharge,early abortion and pyometra, through its chances become less as it become dead in frozen semen.brucellosis brucella abortus transmission of this organism via semen through artificial insemination is of boubtful significance,some oppurtunistic bacteria may cause uterine infection in female ,the exemple of that ,corynebacterium pyogenes,E.coli,fusobacterium necrophorum, staphloccocus,or stretococcus some speices,but this can easily be checked by adding proper antibiotic in semen for artificial insemination.
Why would someone use artificial insemination?
A woman is given fertility drugs to help her body produce several eggs at once, rather than the usual one per month. When a sufficient number of eggs have ripened they are extracted from her body with a long puncture needle, and kept at a laboritory. The man then hands in a dose of semen (obtained from masturbation) which is 'worked up' to have only the most mobile (quickest) sperm cells remain. The eggs and sperm are then put together in a test tube, in order to find each other more easily as they would inside a woman's body. If one or more eggs are successfully fertilised one or two (usually not more, in view of medical risks) will be put back into the woman's body in hopes that they might nestle there resulting in pregnancy. Success rate of IVF is roughly 20%-25%.
Can an artificial animal testing damage the animal?

What is artificial wool?
Artificial wool is 'wool' made from other than animal fleece.
What is inseminatin?
Insemination is the deliberate introduction of sperm into a female animal or plant for the purpose of impregnating or fertilizing the female for sexual reproduction.
Does sexual reproduction produce genetic clones?
No, not at all. A clone produces offspring by sexual reproduction just like any other animal. A farmer or breeder can use natural mating or any other assisted reproductive technology, such as artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization to breed clones, just as they do for other farm animals.
