The low success rate and age-related diseases associated with reproductive cloning is thought to be due to
a. genetic imprinting.
b. the age of the donor cell.
c. cell cycle problems.
d. large offspring syndrome (los).

A: Genetic imprinting

Explanation:

Genomic imprinting is a process wherein a gene is differentially expressed depending on whether it has been inherited from the mother or from the father and occurs only in sexually reproducing placental mammals.

Imprinting occurs when one of the gene’s parental alleles is silenced throughout the embryonic development of the individual by an alteration in parental DNA made during parental gametogenesis thus allowing the other parental allele expression during embryonic development. DNA methylation is one of the mechanisms by which imprinting occurs (the addition of a CH3, or methyl, group to specific regions of DNA). These process has led to disease syndromes and tremendous implications for development and a large attributes in adults.

correct answer: biotic and abiotic limitations

carrying capacity is defined as the total number of an organism who can be supported in a given area within the natural resources limit and without harming or degrading the natural, economic or the cultural environment present for the future generations.

carrying capacity is determined by the limiting factors, which are known to affect the natural resources available. it may include water, nutrients, minerals, space, light etc.
