Explain:<br> - Adult Cell Cloning<br> - Embryo Transplants<br> - Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer
VikaD [51]

The method for adult cell cloning is: The nucleus is removed from an unfertilised egg cell. The nucleus from an adult body cell, such as a skin cell, is inserted into the egg cell. An electric shock stimulates the egg cell to divide to form an embryo.

An embryo transfer is the final stage in the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) process where the fertilized egg—now an embryo—is placed in the woman's uterus. The embryo is loaded into a catheter, which is passed through the vagina and cervix and into the uterus where it is deposited.

In genetics and developmental biology, somatic cell nuclear transfer is a laboratory strategy for creating a viable embryo from a body cell and an egg cell. The technique consists of taking an enucleated oocyte and implanting a donor nucleus from a somatic cell. It is used in both therapeutic and reproductive cloning.

How did photosynthesis lead to the development of animals living on land?
Zolol [24]
<span>Around 2.4 billion years ago, the first photosynthetic organisms appeared and used inorganic matter like carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose, with oxygen released in the atmosphere. Because of this, oxygen levels rose; this is called the <em>Great Oxygenation Event</em><span><em>.</em> Through time, photosynthetic organisms evolved to live in land (now as plants). As concentrations of oxygen in the atmosphere became higher, marine animals evolved to utilize oxygen readily available from the atmosphere (rather dissolved in water) hence the evolution of marine animals to land animals capable of respiration in land. </span></span>
