    The organism would be genetically almost similar to Tasmanian tiger.

    Explanation:

    DNA is the genetic material and is responsible for heredity. The DNA present in the nucleus of an egg cell contributes genetic traits of the mother to the progeny. It imparts the progeny some of the genetic traits of the mother.

    In the given experiment, DNA from the Tasmanian tiger was introduced into the egg cell of the Tasmanian devil and the transgenic egg cell was allowed to produce a new progeny. Since the implanted transgenic egg cell carried the genetic information from the Tasmanian tiger, the resultant progeny would be almost similar to a Tasmanian tiger.
