Question

State whether the following statement is true or false.

A sheep ‘Dolly’ was the first animal cloned from a cell taken from the udder of an adult transgenic sheep.

Answer 1

This statement is true.

Explanation:

Dolly was the first animal cloned using the technique of nuclear transfer from a differentiated adult mammary gland cell, specifically from the udder of a sheep. This groundbreaking cloning demonstrated that cells from adult mammals could be reprogrammed to develop into an entire organism, which was a major advancement in genetic and cloning research.
