Write a unified response that addresses the following aspects of cloning technology.

• Draw a flow chart or diagram to illustrate the process of producing a cloned woolly mammoth from a mammoth tusk marrow cell, an elephant egg cell, and a surrogate elephant mother. Label the flow chart or diagram and include the ploidy (2n or n) of the individual cells and the cloned mammoth.

• Explain why the phenotype of the cloned mammoth would be similar to the woolly mammoth and not to the elephant egg donor or surrogate elephant mother. Compare and contrast how genotype and phenotype are determined in normal sexual reproduction with how they are determined in this type of cloning.

• Describe a societal issue related to cloning or its applications, and propose a hypothetical government position on cloning based on this issue. Justify this government position using at least two well-developed arguments.
