Words to be filled in: cytoplasm, DNA, cloning, Finn-Dorset, nucleus, sexual reproduction



It is USATestPrep. I am not giving 50 points for a wrong answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

cloning, Finn-Dorset, DNA, nucleus

Explanation:

So basically what they're doing here is they're taking the cytoplasm of a cell of the Scottish Blackface sheep (maybe a lamb?, whatever)/removing the nucleus inside that cell and instead inserting the nucleus of the Finn-Dorset sheep. Then they insert that "integrated" cell (so to speak) into a surrogate ewe so that the blastocyst can evolve and develop into Dolly (the lamb/sheep).

The process is cloning. The resulting offspring would be genetically identical to the Finn-Dorset (sheep/lamb) b/c the nucleus is coming from that sheep & the nucleus has the genetic material (DNA).  Hope ya found this helpful :)

P.S. Oh yeah, and thanks for the fifty points (hopefully)
