When creating a cloned mammal, what structure contains the genetic information the scientist intends to clone?

A. blastocyst

B. enucleated oocyte

C. somatic cell

D. surrogate mother

The correct answer is C. somatic cell

Explanation:

Cloning is a process by which identical copies of any individual is made. In nature, cloning is seen in asexual reproduction. When humans do the cloning of any individual it is called artificial cloning.

When any scientific wants to create a clone of a mammal than a somatic cell is taken from the individual whose clone has to be prepared. Then the DNA of the somatic cell is taken out and is transferred to an enucleated oocyte.

Then the oocyte can be transferred to a surrogate mother for the development of the fetus. The individual produced by this process is called a clone.
