    Cloning refers to genetically identical cells originating from a single cell. When animals are referred to as being "cloned," scientists take DNA from a cloned cell of one animal and insert it into a zygote that has had its original DNA removed, replacing it with the cloned DNA. In 1997, scientists successfully cloned the first animal, a sheep named Dolly, using the nucleus from an adult cell of the same species, paving the way for cloning of other animals like sheep and pigs for medical research purposes such as studying genetic disorders and disease susceptibility.

    AIM: WHAT IS
    CLONING?
    What is a clone?
     Clone refers to genetically identical cells
    originating from one cell.

     What are they talking about when they refer


    to “cloned animals”?

     They take DNA from a cloned cell of another


    animal, and insert it into a zygote that had its
    DNA removed, and replace it with the cloned
    DNA.
    What cloning looks
    like on a cellular
    level…
    Who did they clone?
     In 1997, they successfully cloned the
    first animal- a lamb named Dolly.
     The nucleus they used was from an
    adult of the same species.
     Since then, they have successfully
    cloned sheep and pigs.
    Why do they want to clone animals?
     They do this to study genetic disorders
    and disease susceptibility.
     It is done strictly for medical research.
