In 1997, Scottish researchers captured newspaper headlines whenthey announced the birth of Dolly, a lamb cloned from an adultsheep by nuclear transplantation. These researchers culturedmammary (nuclear-donor) cells in a nutrient-poor medium and thenfused these cells with enucleated sheep eggs. The resulting diploidcells divided to form early embryos, which were implanted intosurrogate mothers. Out of several hundred implanted embryos, onesuccessfully completed normal development, and Dolly was born.Later analyses showed that Dolly’s chromosomal DNA was identical tothat of the nucleus donor. Numerous other animals have been clonedthus far. In fact, the science fiction plot of Jurassic Park,revolves around a theme park showcasing cloned dinosaurs. Thesedinosaurs were cloned from DNA found in mosquitoes that had suckeddinosaur blood and had been trapped and preserved in amber.
In this discussion, explain (in 250-300 words) why youthink it is possible to recreate dinosaurs by this technique.(PLEASE TYPE & INCLUDE 1 - 2 SOURCES, NO DIAGRAMS)
