This was able to give infertile couples the blessing of having their own children. By the 1990’s‚ mammals were successfully being cloned; something deemed

In the first activity‚ we came to conclusion that one arm in fact was stronger than the other. Everyone’s dominant arm took more time to fatigue‚ which means it‚ stronger. I believe this was the case because the dominant arm is used more. More tension and pressures is put on this arm and it becomes stronger.
