Polly the sheep was cloned using a technique called somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). This process involved taking a nucleus from a somatic cell of an adult sheep and transferring it into an egg cell that had its nucleus removed. The egg cell was then stimulated to develop into an embryo, which was implanted into a surrogate mother sheep, ultimately resulting in the birth of Polly, a genetic copy of the donor sheep. This groundbreaking method demonstrated the potential for cloning in mammals.
the name of the first cloned sheep is Dolly
The first cloned sheep was named Dolly. She was cloned from an adult somatic cell by researchers at the Roslin Institute in Scotland and was born in 1996.
because it is from two sheep
Dolly was the the name of the Sheep that was the first mammal ever cloned, but the first animal ever cloned was a tadpole. And I don't know if they named it or not. That was back in 1952.Dewey(Deer)
Dolly was not an herbivore, she was a domestic sheep. Dolly was the first mammal cloned from an adult somatic cell using the process of nuclear transfer.
dolly,not polly. she wasnt born - she was cloned!
it was said that dolly the sheep was cloned in a farm
Australia has not yet cloned a sheep.
the name of the first cloned sheep is Dolly
Scientists have cloned sheep, dogs, and cats. Dolly the sheep was cloned in 1997. Cloning can happen naturally as with identical twins.
Dolly and the sheep from which she was cloned have the same genes because Dolly was cloned using the genetic material from the donor sheep's somatic cell. The genetic material in both animals is identical, as Dolly's DNA was derived from the donor sheep's DNA.
An advantage to have cloned sheep includes the ability to make more money, quicker. Another advantage to having cloned sheep is the fact that you are helping promote science.
Dolly was cloned in 1996 and was the first cloned mammal. Dolly died in 2003 at the age of six.
Dolly the sheep needed a surrogate mother because she was cloned from an adult sheep. Her biological mother would not recognize Dolly as her own.
