Dolly the sheep was the world's first cloned mammal, in 1996.
Because she was cloned from a mammary gland cell - the cell from the breast of a female sheep, she was named after the singer Dolly Parton (known for her large bosom).
"Dolly" the sheep was made from a cell from the mammary gland of a Finn x Dorst ewe. She was named after the volumptuous country music artist "Dolly Parton".
because she was the first clone in the world
Because she was the first cloned sheep
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.
Dolly and the sheep from which she was cloned have identical genes.
Dolly was cloned in 1996 and was the first cloned mammal. Dolly died in 2003 at the age of six.
The first sheep cloned from differentiated cells were Megan and Morag in 1995 at the Roslin Institute, called 5LL2 and 5LL5 at birth. Contrary to popular belief, Dolly the sheep was not the first cloned sheep, but the first one cloned from AN ADULT CELL, in 1996. Dr. Steen Willadsen however, appears to have been the first to clone a sheep back in 1984, however he used immature embryonic cells.
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.

Dolly the sheep
Sheep. Dolly showed signs of early aging.
in 1996 scientists cloned the first sheep. the sheeps name was dolly.
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.
the name of the first cloned sheep is Dolly
it was said that dolly the sheep was cloned in a farm
