The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will break down each statement and evaluate their truthfulness. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Statement I**: - The statement claims that the baby born is exactly similar to sheep 'B' and is termed a 'clone'. - A clone is defined as an organism that is genetically identical to another organism. - Therefore, if the baby is exactly similar to sheep 'B', it is indeed a clone of sheep 'B'. - **Conclusion**: Statement I is **True**. 2. **Understanding Statement II**: - The statement claims that the clone has no similarities with sheep 'A', in whose womb it developed. - In the process of cloning, the genetic material comes from the donor (in this case, sheep 'B'), not from the surrogate (sheep 'A'). - Hence, the clone (baby) will not share genetic similarities with the surrogate mother (sheep 'A'). - **Conclusion**: Statement II is also **True**. 3. **Evaluating the Options**: - Now, we need to evaluate the options based on our conclusions: - Option 1: Statement I is true and Statement II is false. (Incorrect) - Option 2: Statement I is false and Statement II is true. (Incorrect) - Option 3: Both statements are true. (Correct) - Option 4: Both statements are false. (Incorrect) ### Final Answer: - The correct answer is **Option 3: Both statements are true**.
