Solution

The correct option is B Ian Wilmut
Dolly is the first sheep which was developed by the technique of cloning by Ian Wilmut in the year 1997. The sheep was developed from the diploid body cell. The somatic cell from the mother sheep was taken and the nucleus was injected into the egg cell which was cultured and transferred into the surrogate mother. This method is known as nuclear transfer. The sheep Dolly was identical in the characters with the mother who donated the diploid nucleus from the body cell.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
