Sheridean McMahan, of Jones, Okla., picks out an American elm sapling in Oklahoma City, Friday, April 19, 2019. The tree grew out of a seed from the "Survivor Tree" that is a symbol of hope after the deadly 1995 Oklahoma City bombing. Science and technology are helping Oklahoma City to sustain the DNA of a tree symbolizing hope 24 years after the deadliest act of domestic terrorism on U.S. soil. As part of an annual remembrance of the bombing, civic leaders on Friday plan to transplant a tree that was cloned from a scarred American elm that lived through the blast. They hope the younger elm will replace the nearly 100-year-old "Survivor Tree" once it dies. (AP Photo/Adam Kealoha Causey)
