    Viviparous animals give birth to live offspring, such as elephants, dogs, and humans. Oviparous animals lay eggs that hatch into offspring like snakes, birds, frogs and butterflies. Some animals undergo metamorphosis after birth or hatching so their young do not resemble the parents. Cloning is a technique to produce multiple copies of genes, chromosomes, or whole organisms, such as Dolly the sheep.

    VIVIPAROUS AND OVIPAROUS

    ANIMALS

    By-Samarth and Athish


    VIVIPAROUS ANIMALS

    Animals that give birth to live


    offspring are called Viviparous
    animals.
    Examples: Elephant, dog, cat,
    horse, cow, human beings.
    OVIPAROUS ANIMALS

    • Animals that lay eggs,


    which hatch into offspring,
    are called Oviparous
    animals
    • Examples: Snakes, birds,
    frogs, and butterflies.
    • Newly hatched birds and
    young ones of mammals
    look similar to their
    parents. However, in some
    animals the newly hatched
    individuals do not
    resemble the parents and
    undergo a series of
    changes (called
    metamorphosis) after birth
    CLONING

    Cloning is a technique through


    which multiple copies of a single
    gene, chromosome, or whole
    organism can be produced.
    Perhaps the most famous
    example of cloning is Dolly the
    sheep, which was cloned at
    Roslin Institute, Scotland
