Let’s suppose a sheep that provided the oocyte for reproductive cloning was homozygous for a gene that causes a small head. This

gene follows a maternal effect pattern of inheritance. The oocyte had its nucleus removed and then was fused with a mammary cell that was homozygous for the nonmutant allele, which results in a normal-sized head. Would you expect the resultant lamb to have a small or normal-sized head? Explain your choice.
