Why was Dolly a FinnDorset and not a Scottish Blackface shee

Why was Dolly a Finn-Dorset and not a Scottish Blackface sheep?

Solution

Cloning is the process of production of the “genetically identical copy,” either of the animal or human. The cloning process, which yields genetically identical copies, is called “reproductive cloning.” Reproductive cloning needs “somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT),” in which the nucleus is removed from a fertilized egg and is then introduced into the host egg cell.

The nucleus of Dolly is obtained from Finn-Dorset that contains genetic material, but not a Scottish Blackface sheep. So, Dolly is a Finn-Dorset.
