Therapeutic cloning is when a cloned embryo is formed by putting a nucleus from the patient’s cell into an egg without a nucleus. The cloned embryo then divides multiple times and forms into a sphere shape called a blastocyst (day 1-5). These embryonic stem cells are now visible and can be developed into any of the bodies 200+ tissue cells (day 5-7). After this stage the embryonic stem cells are removed and grown in a separate Petri dish. As they continue to divide‚ they create a line of stem cells

1) What are the technical challenges for cloning a mammal organism? Include the following terms in your answer: cell determination‚ cell differentiation‚ and nuclear reprogramming. Cloning is producing a cell line or culture all whose members contain identical copies of a particular nucleotide sequence; an essential element in genetic engineering (Raven et al‚ G-5). Lack of imprinting; genes that are imprinted are expressed differently‚ the original parent in which the gene was taken from is the
