Based on the information that can be found in literature about these animals’ past (i.e. fossil records, historical records about environment, etc), propose what would be their nutrient requirements

Description
Imagine that a successful technology to recreate animals by design from DNA has been developed (and we
didn’t know about it!). Scientists are considering the production of some of the animals below, with the aim to
add them to a zoological collection to be displayed and breed, for education, leisure, and research.
Write an essay to cover the following points for ONE of the 4 animal creatures below:

  1. a) Based on the information that can be found in literature about these animals’ past (i.e. fossil records,
    historical records about environment, etc), propose what would be their nutrient requirements

    on food, justifying your estimates.
  3. c) Discuss how reliable is the data that informs your proposal, and mention what approaches would be helpful
    to inform this report, and how (i.e. comparative physiology, actual molecular methods; geographical
    information, etc.
