How Dolly was cloned

Animal cloning from an adult cell is much more difficult than from an embryonic cell. So when scientists working at the Roslin Institute in Scotland produced Dolly, the only lamb born from 277 attempts, it was a major news story around the world.

To produce Dolly, scientists used an udder cell from a six-year-old Finn Dorset white sheep. They had to find a way to 'reprogram' the udder cells - to keep them  alive but stop them growing – which they achieved by altering the growth medium (the ‘soup’ in which the cells were kept alive). Then they injected the cell into an unfertilised egg cell which had had its nucleus removed, and made the cells fuse by using electrical pulses. The unfertilised egg cell came from a Scottish Blackface ewe. When the research team had managed to fuse the nucleus from the adult white sheep cell with the egg cell from the black-faced sheep, they needed to make sure that the resulting cell would develop into an embryo. They cultured it for six or seven days to see if it divided and developed normally, before implanting it into a surrogate mother, another Scottish Blackface ewe. Dolly had a white face.

From 277 cell fusions, 29 early embryos developed and were implanted into 13 surrogate mothers. But only one pregnancy went to full term, and the 6.6 kg Finn Dorset lamb 6LLS (alias Dolly) was born after 148 days.

Question 9.9. Which bone would a forensic anthropologist analyze to identify a victim as male or female?
OLEGan [10]

The answers would be:

Pelvis

Coroner's office

Here is more about your questions:

The pelvis is a good identifier when it comes to male and female because the features have distinct features. The female pelvis for example is broader and the inlet is much wider. It is structured that way to prepare the woman's body for pregnancy and child birth.

Forensic anthropologists is a sub-category of anthropology. Forensic anthropologists examine skeletal remains to determine how an individual lived, died, and how long they were dead. They can also identify who they were. Forensic anthropologists can assist especially when the remains are badly decomposed.
