Worksheet on stem cells /cloning Partha Name__________________ Per_________ Go to http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/ Click on Stem cells Watch “Nature of stem cells” Use the following terms and put it in the corresponding boxes. • blastocyst • mesoderm • heart • endoderm • muscles • gut tube • ectoderm • intestine • skin and nervous system •lungs http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/tech/stemcells/whatissc/ What is cell differentiation? What are the three layers of cells in the blastocyst? What will the outer layer(ectoderm) of cells form? What will the inner layer(mesoderm) of cells form? What will the inner cell mass(endoderm) form? What are somatic stem cells? Give examples What are embryonic stem cells? Click on “ unlocking stem cell potential” and Click on “ stem cells quick reference” What are stem cells used for? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. CLONING GO TO Home page CLICK ON “Cloning” “Click and clone” a mouse clone. What was the first animal cloned? What color is the mouse clone? Write the steps of clonng in order.

Go to http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/tech/stemcells/whatissc/ Click on “ Cloning timeline” When did When did Walter Sutton prove that chromosomes hold information? Who found the structure of DNA?______________________ What year?______________ When was the term “clone” first used?___________________ Click on “1996” on the timeline. What is the name of the first organism ever to be cloned from adult cells? ________________________ Click on “Is it cloning or not” and play the game. Is it Cloning or Not? 14. For each of the following scenarios, indicate YES (it is cloning) or NO (it is not cloning) ___________Sperm taken from a mole goat is combined with a female's egg in a petri dish. The resulting embryo is implanted into the female's uterus to develop ___________A sheep embryo, composed of 16 cells, is removed from the mother's uterus and separated into indivudal cells. Each cell is allowed to multiply, creating 16 separate embryos, which are then implanted in different female sheep to develop to maturity. ___________A cow with many desirable traits is stimulated with hormones to produce a number of egg cells. Each of these eggs is fertilized and implanted into a surrogate mother. ___________ Cell nuclei from an extinct wolly mammoth are placed into enucleated cow cells. What are some of the risks and issues in cloning? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
