Dolly the cloned sheep was the first example of an animal cloned with DNA from a somatic cell (a cell which is not a gamete/sex cell). Specifically, Dolly was cloned from a cell of a sheep's mammary gland.
However, the complete somatic cell itself was not a part of the embryo that became Dolly. Instead, scientists removed the DNA from an unfertilized sheep oocyte (a precursor to an egg) and inserted the DNA taken from the mammary gland cell in its place. This meant that only the nucleus from the mammary gland cell was actually used to create Dolly.

they can only be used to create types of cells
What is the name of the first cloned sheep?
The first sheep cloned from differentiated cells were Megan and Morag in 1995 at the Roslin Institute, called 5LL2 and 5LL5 at birth. Contrary to popular belief, Dolly the sheep was not the first cloned sheep, but the first one cloned from AN ADULT CELL, in 1996. Dr. Steen Willadsen however, appears to have been the first to clone a sheep back in 1984, however he used immature embryonic cells.

What Kind of cells can mitosis not make?
Mitosis can't produce gametes as sperms and ova, which have 23 chromosomes. It only produces somatic cells which are used in the rest of the body that contain 46 chromosomes.
What kind of stain are used to stain plant and animal cells?
