Recently, Barbara Streisand had her pet dog Samantha (“Sammie”) cloned using some of Sammie’s skin cells in a nuclear transfer procedure. Several months after the cloned puppy was born, Barbara noticed that while the new puppy looked like Sammie, the puppy behaved very differently than the original Sammie. In an interview, she stated, “you can clone the look of a dog, but you cannot clone the soul”. If you met Barbara in person, how would you use what you’ve learned about organismal cloning and genetics to explain the differences in her cloned puppy?
