* ** *** Give one example of cloning (G) State one advantage and one disadvantage of cloning an organism Describe what is meant by a clone (D)

3 What is a clone? Clones are genetically identical individuals. There are different ways of getting clones Twins Taking cuttings Tissue cultures Cloning

4 Cloning in plants

5 Cloning in animals

6 Oh Goldie, you’re my favourite sheep
If only all my sheep were exactly like you I could use selective breeding, but It would take too long

7 I’m a big name in the world of cloning
Why don’t you and Goldie come to my Lab and I’ll see what I can do for you I’m a big name in the world of cloning Hi Famer Boris Hi Goldie

8 Thank you so much for coming – do you have any questions before we start?

9 How does Cloning work? It won’t hurt my little
Goldie will it?

10 Cloning is a simple process - let me tell you all about it

11 First we take a skin cell from Goldie

12 Then we remove the Nucleus from the cell Now we need another sheep
This Nucleus contains Goldie's DNA Then we remove the Nucleus from the cell Now we need another sheep

13 We Take an Egg Cell out of the new sheep
You are going to do WHAT?!?!?!?!

14 The we remove the nucleus from the new sheep cell
This Nucleus contains Goldie's DNA The we remove the nucleus from the new sheep cell

15 We now have an egg cell containing Goldie’s Exact DNA – We need to find a place for it to grow

16 Once inside the Surrogate sheep the baby sheep develops as normal
I wish the little so and so would stop kicking me

17 The Sheep goes back to live on a farm and has a normal pregnancy

18 She Give birth to a sheep who is Genetically identical to Goldie

19 What an excellent idea – I think I’ll keep going

20 THE END
