Cloning Mind Map
- Types of Cloning
- Organism Cloning: exact genetic
copies of living things
- Artificial Embryo Twinning:
seperation of very early embryo
cells into individual, identical cells
- Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer:
removal of an egg cell's single
set of chromosomes
- Dolly the Lamb was an
exact genetic replica of
an adult female sheep
- Gene Cloning:
isolation of a gene in
order to create an
exact copy
- Stem Cell Cloning:
manipulation of stem cells
for the repairing of damaged
or diseased organs and
tissues
- Cloning Myths
- Instant Clones: -
is believed that
clones magically
appear the same
age as the
original -
incorrect - clones
are genetically
identical but will
need to grow and
develop as the
original did
- Carbon Copies: - is
believed that clones are
exactly the same (will
look and behave in the
same manner) - not true
- genetically identical
twins look relatively
similar but develop
disticnt differences
through the years -
clones grow and develop
differently from the
original - mitochondria is
different in clones
- Artificial Process: - is
believed that al cloning
happens in a lab
through artificial
embryo twinning and
nuclear transfers
- identical twins
from mammals are
naturally occuring
clones
- female aphids
grow into identical
copies of their
mothers
- starfish cut in
half will
regenerate into
identical copies
