Vedclass · Answer

(A) Dolly the sheep was the first mammal to be cloned from an adult somatic cell. This process is known as Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer $(SCNT)$. In this technique,the nucleus from a somatic cell (taken from the mammary gland of an adult donor sheep) is transferred into an enucleated oocyte (an egg cell from which the nucleus has been removed). This reconstructed egg is then stimulated to divide and develop into an embryo,which is subsequently implanted into a surrogate mother.
