Why three different sheeps used for dolly cloning?

Three different sheep were used in the cloning of Dolly to demonstrate the process of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) and to ensure genetic diversity. The egg donor, the somatic cell donor, and the surrogate mother were all different individuals, which helped researchers understand the implications of using cells from one organism to create a clone. This approach also minimized the risk of genetic anomalies and allowed for the study of cloning's effects on health and development. Using multiple sheep underscored the complexity of cloning and its ethical considerations.


What process is used to create an exact genetic copy of an organism?

The process used to create an exact genetic copy of an organism is called cloning. In somatic cell nuclear transfer cloning, the nucleus of a somatic cell is transferred into an egg cell that has had its nucleus removed. This creates a genetic copy of the original organism.

Which is 1st the animal to be cloned and where?

The first was "Dolly", a very famous scottish sheep. It is worth noting, however, that there had been previous cloning done, but all on very small creatures i.e flies. "Dolly" is considered to be the first cloned, as cloning a sheep is so complex and the fact that both Dollies had a full bill of health afterward. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The first cloned animal was a tadpole.
