A presentation about how Dolly the sheep was created.

1. Dolly The Sheep

2. Dolly The Sheep
Dolly The Sheep is the first mammal to be cloned using somatic nuclear transfer.
Many sources including the BBC have called Dolly the most famous sheep.
Shaun the Sheep is probably more famous

3. Cloning Process

4. Cloning Process
First scientists removed mammary cells from sheep 1’s udder. The
mammary cells are left alone for five days in the lab so that they would
become totipotent.
Then an oocyte (egg cell) is removed from another sheep (sheep 2)
The nucleus from the oocytes is extracted in the lab. Then the oocyte is
fertilized with sheep 1’s cells by a mild shock which acts as fertilization.
Then the embryo is implanted into the womb of sheep 3.
Sheep 3 then gives birth and you have your clone.

5.  In the clone the DNA bases are exactly the same as
the parent.
 A clone only has one parent.
 A clone is an organism or cell that has genetically identical
information to its parent.

6.  Extinct animals could be brought back to life
 Humans could be brought back to life
 Using Therapeutic cloning you could get your damaged cells or even
organs fixed
 You could have a genetically perfect child in the future using cloning.
 There would be a lack of uniqueness between children and animals due
to them all being genetically, extremely similar.
 Currently cloning has a success rate of 5%
 It raises ethical issues.

7. Animal cloning raises ethical issues about how far humans should
be allowed to interfere in the production of new life.
