Chapter 18, Problem 4A
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Genome assembly is simply the sequencing of genome produced after fragmentation of chromosome and then those fragments are sequenced and resulting sequences have been set back together. Genome sequencing is the process of determining the sequence of organism’s genome.

- A. Why are mammals hard to clone? B. What were the names of the first two cloned cows?arrow_forwardThe following diagram outlines how the process of cloning a sheep was accomplished. Cloning is the process of creating a genetically identical copy of another individual. With Dolly, the first cloned mammal, an egg cell was removed from a donor (B) and the nucleus was removed from the egg cell. Then cells from a sheep's mammary gland were removed from a second donor (A). The nucleus of one of the cells from the mammary gland was fused with the enucleated egg cell using an electrical pulse. The fused cell underwent cell division and at the blastocyst stage was implanted into a surrogate mother sheep. The fused cell is cultured and is implanted as a multi-celled embryo. During the step where the fused cell begins dividing normally, the cells of the future clone undergo Select one: a. fertilization b. meiosis c. mitosis d. gene splicingarrow_forwardDescribe two of the applications for genome mapping.arrow_forward
