Cloning In Jurassic Park
Reproductive cloning continues to rise not just in certain places like the U.S.. It also raises the question of how much would it cost and who would have access to it. In Jurassic Park Dr. Hammond was a multi-millionaire who had connections that helped him make a park and be successful in cloning dinosaurs. Researchers say they can only bring back extinct species that have died within the past few tens of thousands of years who left remains that have ells intact or at least ancient

    The cloning portrayed in this film was pretty accurate to what cloning actually is although scientist today do not have the tools that they would need to clone a long extinct species, but the basic idea behind the idea is essentially the same. The type of cloning shown in Jurassic park is nuclear transfer as well as having a little bit of genetic engineering when they use frog DNA to fill in the missing holes in the dinosaurs DNA.…

Did you take notice the basis of the of is about cloning dinosaurs DNA; I know for one, the world is not ready for dinosaurs to walk free about the earth again.

    When we hear about cloning in the media, they are usually referring to reproductive cloning, human cloning in particular, and it’s scientific and ethical implications. In Jurassic Park, John Hammand, who is a rich entrepreneur, hires a group of scientists to clone dinosaurs from the Jurassic Period. The ethical dilemma presented in Jurassic Park is whether we should use our knowledge of cloning to revive an extinct species that ceased to exist through natural processes. I believe John Hammand used ethical relativism (Van Camp, Olen, and Barry page 4) because he coordinated this project based on moral truths that were true to him. However, several of the experts he hired to sponsor the park disagreed with the ethical judgments he made while developing the park. I will briefly describe two types of cloning that were combined to successfully engineer the dinosaurs in the movie, and give an example of cloning that has been successful. Then I will give reasons why it is unethical to resurrect species that became instinct through natural processes.…

    In an NBC news article, the author stated, “Scientists are one step closer to bringing a woolly mammoth back to life” (Ghose). Her statement proves that animal cloning is not a dream or idea anymore. It is now a reality and scientist from all around the world are utilizing animal cloning. Cloning in general has evolved its technology over the years and has become more advanced. In fact, author Jacqueline Langwith wrote an article on animal cloning, which started, “Animal cloning has entered the world of horse racing and other equestrian sports.” (Langwith). Many people are excited to clone their favorite or most successful horse. An example that Jacqueline cited was, “An Italian Haflinger foal named Prometea was the first cloned horse” (Langwith). However, cloning is a new type of science that is…

    The simple fact that humans caused the extinction is the best reason why we, humans, should clone it. The mistake people made in killing the Tasmanian Tiger would be rectified, if we are to clone it. We would be placing an extinct animal back into existence. We have the technology, and the DNA needed, so why not do it?…

    Cloning may be an astonishing new discovery for science, but with this great break through comes great risk. One risk of cloning is that there is only a .0036 percent chance of the experiment going right. (Stanley 45) With hundreds of attempts and only one falling through, what might happen to the rest? The risk of failed experiments involving multiple embryos raises concerns for many critics knowing that the extra embryos, potential animals or humans, will be disposed of. The main risks of cloning are all the unknown ones. In Debbie Stanley’s Genetic Engineering: The Cloning Debate, she quotes Alta Charo argument against cloning: "With only a couple of sheep and a hand full of cattle, we are not even close to having completed responsible testing on this technique. Whatever the Seed brothers are telling their human clients, they are certainly not able to tell them what the…

    After Dolly the sheep, scientists shifted their focus from cloning to stem cell research. One of the main reasons was due to the sheer amount of controversy that cloning had generated; different ethic groups present different views to the situation. In addition, if mammals were successfully cloned, scientists will almost certainly pursue in human cloning, which would in turn, exacerbate the already hostile situation.…
