  1. Genetic Engineering “Boot Camp”:CLONING Day 4

  2. What is cloning????? • Cloning is the creation of an organism that is an exact genetic copy of another. • This means that every single bit of DNA is the same between the two!

  3. Artificial Embryo Twinning • Mimics natural identical twins • See the animation to find the process used. • http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/tech/cloning/whatiscloning/

  4. Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer: • Uses somatic cells (any cell in the body other than the reproductive cells) • Involves enucleation(removing the nucleus from an egg cell) • This is how Dolly the sheep was cloned in 1997 • http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/tech/cloning/clickandclone/
