The technique of embryo splitting involves removing an embryo. Individual cells from this embryo are removed and then placed into petri dishes that contain the correct nutrients and hormones for growth. Each of the removed cells now divides to form a new embryo. These embryos are then implanted into the uterus of surrogate mothers. These surrogate mothers will then give birth to identical young.

Can a day 6 embryo split?

Yes, a day 6 embryo can potentially split into two separate embryos in a process called blastocyst splitting. This can result in identical twins or multiples sharing the same genetic material.


What do parents do to make there twins look alike?

Identical twins are conceived by the embryo splitting into two in the early stages of pregnancy, not by anything the parents' did/do. Parents can make their kids look similar by dressing them alike.


Arificial embryo twining vs somatic cell nuclear transfer?

Artificial embryo twinning is achieved by separating an embryo into two similar cells. Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), on the other hand, is done by replacing an egg cell's set of chromosomes with two from a somatic cell.


At what point during development can an embryo split, and how late in the process can this occur?

An embryo can split into two separate embryos during the early stages of development, typically within the first two weeks after fertilization. This process is known as twinning. In rare cases, splitting can occur later in development, up to around 13 days after fertilization.

What are the Physiological differences of cleavage between mammals and birds?

What kind of cleavage are you referring to? Cleavage could refer to a cleavage furrow during cytokinesis or to the splitting of cells in an embryo or to any other sort of separation. Please specify.


Is it possible to have an uneven split of an embryo?

This was a research done by Hans Spemann, an embryologist of the early 20th century in Germany. His research lead him to conclude that the dorsal and ventral (top and bottom) halves of the embryo were different. The top half contained a certain group of cells that organize development. They are visible on the dorsal surface of a 2-cell-stage embryo. The outcome of his constriction experiments depended on exactly where this structure was in relation to the constriction. If one half of the constriction contained the entire structure, it would develop into an embryo that could live and the other half developed into the belly-piece. If the structure was evenly split during the constriction, the result was twin, including Siamese twin, embryos. If it was split unevenly, it resulted (in some cases) an embryo with two heads (a Siamese twin). He also inadvertently discovered a way to clone during this process of constricting embryos as they split.
