  • Fusion cell cloning
  • Fusion cell cloning involves replacing the nucleus of an unfertilised egg with the nucleus from a different cell.

      In fusion cell cloning they inject something into the egg that will produce the next sheep. The baby of this sheep that was born then will also become a clone of the A sheep.

      I chose fusion cell cloning. A fun fact about fusion cell cloning is that dolly, a famous cloned sheep, was also cloned this exact way.

    Great techniques. Choose one you want to focus on .

    Fusion cell cloning is basically taking the a body cell from A sheep and doing the same thing from the B sheep to then make a C sheep. The lamb of that sheep is then going to be a clone of the A sheep.

  • What is a Clone
  • In biology, a clone is a cell or an organism that is genetically identical to another cell or organism.
  • How was Dolly Created? Dolly is different. She was generated from a specialized adult cell, not from an unspecialized embryonic cell.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • Why is Dolly so special?
  • Why did researchers create Dolly?
  • created Dolly because they are trying to find ways to produce livestock that carry specific genetic traits.
  • find ways to produce animals that carry certain proteins in their milk.
  • if researchers can develop animals with desirable characteristics, they can then clone those animals to produce entire herds that carry the same traits.
  • Scotland tried 277 times to create cloned sheep, and they succeeded only once.
  • Dolly is special because she disproves the notion that cells from an adult animal are too specialized to generate a new organism.

      This basically says that Dolly is special proves the theory wrong that the cells from an adult animal are too specialized to make a new baby.

    This is a science article and it has lots of information about animal cloning. It explains what a clone is in detail, has lots of diagrams to show what it means and lots of information about dolly.

  • Scientists at the Monell Center have identified the location and certain genetic characteristics of taste stem cells on the tongue. The findings will facilitate techniques to grow and manipulate new functional taste cells for both clinical and research purposes.
  • purvivora on 11 Feb 13
     
    this may work for science article
  • Beth Warrington on 25 Feb 13
     
    "Cancer patients who have taste loss following radiation to the head and neck and elderly individuals with diminished taste function are just two populations who could benefit from the ability to activate adult taste stem cells," said Robert Margolskee, M.D., Ph.D., a molecular neurobiologist at Monell who is one of the study's authors.

    This is good for technique. What is the technique called and can you explain it briefly in your own words? Please tag correctly using the rubric

    Scientist in NY part of the Stem Cell foundation changed an adult egg cell to the beginning stages using high-tech cloning technology. This resulted in a self-reproducing chain of embryonic stem cells.The techique is basically cloning a human embryo to create a lot of working stem cells. This can be used for tissue therapy and for research.

    LA JOLLA, CA-A new method for generating stem cells from mature cells promises to boost stem cell production in the laboratory, helping to remove a barrier to regenerative medicine therapies that would replace damaged or unhealthy body tissues.

    Your tags are incomplete "stem cells" is one tag. Also tag with your name and the media type! I am not sure this is a very good post...you may want to find another one that's simpler to understand and actually talks about the issue. This postis just critiquing the report. If there is a SPECIFIC post that you want me to read, please put the title of that post.
  • purvivora on 19 Feb 13
     
    still not clear which post you want me to read. should have used the highlighter.
