Question

How are the blunt and sharp pipettes

Answer 1

Answer:

During the process of the type of cloning known as Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT), once the nucleus is removed from the egg cell, blunt and sharp pipette both are used. The purpose of the blunt pipette is to hold the egg cell in position whereas the sharp pipette penetrates the cell to take the nucleus out by sucking it - a process known as "enucleation". This nucleus is discarded. Rather, this nucleus is replaced by a nucleus taken out from a somatic cell (same way as described before) of the same organism.
