The first cloned placental mammal was Dolly the Sheep. She was named after the ample chested singer Dolly Parton because the DNA for her egg was taken from a mammary cell of the cloned animal.

When did they make a clone sheep?
Dolly the sheep was born on July 5, 1996. She is considered to be the first true cloned sheep because she came from introducing genes from another sheep directly into an unfertilized egg. The same genetics team who made Dolly had cloned an adult sheep in 1995 by using an already fertilized embryo.
What year was Dolly the Sheep cloned?
The process of cloning dolly the sheep was started by taking a cell from the mammary gland of Sheep A. The cells nucleus was then removed and placed into an egg cell from Sheep B. (The egg cell form Sheep B had its nucleus removed). The cell was then implanted into a surrogate mother, Sheep B, and given a jolt of electricity. Dolly was a clone of Sheep A because that is where the DNA was from.
How does cloned sheep compare genetically to a sheep that is made using sexual reproduction?
To answer this correctly, you need to know how the sheep are related. Is the parent of the cloned sheep one of the parents to the sheep that is produced sexually? If so, the two sheep would have half the numbers of genes in common. If not, they would be even less related and have fewer genes in common. Both would have the genes that make them sheep in common.
The technology of genetic engineering has allowed humans to alter the genetic makeup of organisms. What is one example of this alteration?
Growing a new corn plant that can tolerate drought and disease. Developing rice that contains more Vitamin A. Using a bacteria to deliver chemical agents in cancer treatment. Using bacteria to mass produce human insulin.
What does a tushy massage involve?
A tushy massage is a massage of the gluteus maximus, or backside. This particular massage, using these specific terms, is a popular theme in some adult movies.

When did Dolly become the first mammal to be cloned?
Dolly was a female domestic sheep, and the first mammal to be cloned from an adult somatic cell, using the process of nuclear transfer. She was born on July 5, 1996 and she lived until the age of six, at which point she died from a progressive lung disease. She was cloned by Ian Wilmut, Keith Campbell and colleagues at the Roslin Institute and the biotechnology company PPL Therapeutics near Edinburgh in Scotland.
Were there any animals cloned before dolly the sheep?
In 1952 tadpole was cloned using the method of somatic cell nuclear transfer by Briggs and Kings.----- Rathijit Mitra

Where did Dolly the sheep come from?
Dolly the sheep was the first mammal to be cloned from an adult somatic cell. She was cloned near Edinburgh by Ian Wilmut, Keith Campbell and their colleagues at the Roslin Institute and the biotechnology company PPL Therapeutics. Dolly was created by inserting the nucleus of a somatic (non-sex) cell into an oocyte (developing ovum/egg) and then using an electric shock to cause this cell to divide. The resulting blastocyst is then implanted into a surrogate mother.

What were the names of the first two cloned cows?
Millie and Emma were the names of the first cloned cows (Jerseys) that were produced at the University of Tennessee using the standard cell-culturing techniques.
Was dolly the name of the sheep that was cloned?
The person who cloned dolly was a scientist named Ian Wilmut, with Keith Campbell, however he had a team who helped him to create dolly in Edinburgh. Dolly was about 6 1/2 years old at the time they had to put her down from developing a disease, and arthritis in her hind legs.
The name dolly has come to be associated with whatcontroversial new branch of science?
Genetic cloning of animals; Dolly the sheep was produced as an exact replica of her mother through taking the mother nucleus of her egg, implanting it into another sheeps egg with no nucleus and then that fertilised egg being placed in a surrogate mother sheep.
What is the first animal created by reproductive cloning?
PCH: SheepThe first animal cloned was a tadpole. More info below. 1885: Sea Urchin: Hans Adolf Edward Dreisch split a two celled urchin embryo to separate the cells. The two individual cells were allowed to grow and develop and he was left with two genetically identical individuals.1902: Salamander: Hans Spemann uses a baby's hair to take a two celled salamander embryo and literally pinches them apart. He was left with two genetically identical salamanders.1952: Frog: Robert Briggs and Thomas King took the nucleus from the frog the desired to clone and put it into the egg from another frog, which had previously had it's nucleus removed. The egg was allowed to duplicate and grow. Unfortunately, many frogs that did grow were deformed.1975: Rabbit: J. Derek Bromhall used nuclear transfer, like Briggs and King, to clone a rabbit. An advanced embryo, morula, developed after a few days. He considered his experiment a success even though an adult organism did not develop.1986: Sheep: The ever famous Dolly was not the first cloned sheep. The scientist Steen Willadsen cloned this sheep using a nucleus from an enucleated egg cell. A small shock fuses the two together. The resulting egg is implanted into a surrogate mother.1987: Cow: Neal First, Randal Prather, and Willard Eyestone used an electrical shock to morph together isolated nuclei and empty egg cells. The two resulting calves are named Fusion and Copy.1996: Sheep: Ian Wilmut and Keith Campbell use cultured mammalian cells to create two cloned lambs. They are named Megan and Molly.1996: Sheep: Wilmut and Campbell use the process previously noted in 2 to create Dolly the sheep.1997: Monkey: Li Meng, John Ely, Richard Stouffer, and Don Wolf used the previous method of shocking embryonic nuclei and enucleated egg cells to make 29 cloned embryos. Of the 29 only two monkeys developed, Neti and Ditto.1997: Sheep: Angelika Schnieke, Keith Campbell, and Ian Wilmut use cultured sheep cells to attempt something that could help human hemophiliacs. These people lack a clotting factor and when they get mild scratches they could bleed to death. Hemophilia is very prominent in the royal families of Hawaii, Britain, Spain etc. due to the intermarriage in the families. Hemophiliacs typically die before coming of age. The factor for clotting, factor IX, is inserted into the sheep DNA and the nuclei are inserted into enucleated eggs. A sheep with the human factor IX is born, she's named Polly.1998: Mouse: Teruhiko Wakayama, and Ryuzo Yanagimachi use the process used to make Dolly to create the first cloned mouse pup named Cumulina.1999: Mouse: Wakayama and Yanagimachi plan to make a male clone. So far all successful adult clones have been made female. The isolate the male DNA and insert it into empty egg cells. Fertilization is simulated with a shock and after almost 300 attempts a male mouse is made, Fibro.Finally a cat named CC, a joke on the phrase 'Copy Cat', which was part of a larger project to clone a dog named Snuppy.
