A family pays a biotechnology company to clone their cat because it is particularly snuggly. The scientists isolate the DNA from the original pet and begin the cloning process. When the family receives the clone, should they expect differences in looks and behavior and why?
A
The cloned cat will look and behave differently, because looks and behavior are influenced by environmental factors and not DNA.
B
The cloned cat will look the same, but the behavior may be different since behavior is learned and not encoded by DNA.
C
The cloned cat will look different, but it will behave the same because the DNA encodes behavioral traits and not physical traits.
D
The cloned cat will look and behave exactly the same, because it has the exact same DNA.
