Revelation, who was an astounding prized red Angus bull, was injured and sent to slaughter. After this injury, in order to preserve his genetics, one of the options considered was cloning. This option would have reproduced the exact phenotypic makeup of Revelation.

 

True or False

 

This is false. Since although when cloning an individual the resulting clone will be genetically identical, this only ensures that they will have the same GENOTYPE, but the PHENOTYPE that refers to their visible characteristics is the result of the interaction of their genotype with the environment, therefore having the same genotype does not guarantee that they will be phenotypically the same and that if the environmental conditions in which the cloned bull grows are different, it may exhibit different phenotypic characteristics from the Angus bull Revelation.
