Totipotent
|
in plants mature cells can dedifferentiate and give rise to all the specialized cell types of the mature organism
|
|
Cloning
|
using one or more domatic cells from a multicellular organism to make another genetically identical individual
|
|
Nuclear transplantation
|
to remove the nucleus of an unfertilized egg cell or zygote and replace it with the nucleus of a differentiated cell
|
|
3 requirments to sustain the development of an egg whose own nucleus has been removed
|
1.The diploid adult nucleus must have all the genes present in the organism
2. The genes that are not active in the diploid nucleus of the adult cell used for transplantation must be capable of being reactivated 3. The nucleus must be capable of responding to the signals of the egg cell and early embryo, and be able to divide very frequently without loss of genetic material |
|
Cloned animal status
|
Appear normal and give birth to viable offspring making reproductive cloning successful premature aging. Cells stay the same age.
|
|
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT)
|
Used to produce stem cells with a nuclear-genetic genotype identical to that of the nuclear donor
|
|
Therapeutic cloning
|
one removes and cultivates cells from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst hoping to procude embryonic stem cell lines with the gentype of the nuclear donor
