HUMAN CLONING SHOULD BE BANNED. At the present time the science has achieved such high level of the development that it became possible to clone not only the cells but the whole organisms. Up to now such experiments were made on the representatives of the animal kingdom. In the late 90s the whole humanity could make sure of such experiment. The news that splashed over the newspaper front pages around the world in 1997 was about sheep Dolly. Dolly was the first mammal to have been successfully

he became interested in research. His father’s disease may have been another factor that led Wilmut to develop an interest in this field. In January 1996‚ Wilmut began the cloning procedure. No other scientists were yet able to replicate Wilmut’s experiment of creating a sheep from the adult cell of another sheep. After cloning Dolly‚ Wilmut went on to produce Molly and Polly. They were each cloned with a human gene that allowed their milk to contain a blood clotting protein‚ which could be extracted

Should We Bring Back Extinct Animals? 1. Background and Context Cloning is the act of producing a copy of a living organism that is physically and genetically identical to the organism that it originates from. There are many ways to clone organisms. In the question of extinct animals‚ those ways are somatic cell nuclear transfer‚ SCNT for short‚ or mapping out the genome of an extinct animal and implanting it into a closely related surrogate mother. In the case of the woolly mammoth‚ the cell

issues concern the topics of abortion‚ space exploration‚ cloning‚ etc. There are many pros and cons concerning the ethical issues. Pros support the issues and cons oppose the issues. In this report‚ I will be discussing the topic of cloning humans based on an article from The New York Times/ 12-3-97. I will also discuss the pros and cons of this procedure.

The female sheep cloned was the first ever mammal to be cloned with an adult somatic cell‚ using nuclear transfer and it was named Dolly [1]. She was cloned by Ian Wilmut‚ Keith Cambell‚ and some colleagues. She was born on the fifth of July in 1996 and she lived until she was the age of 6. She has

Rifkin” The embryonic cloning debate touches down ethical issues that are each debatable. One is the debate whether it is healthy and or ethical to obtain eggs from a woman for stem cells. It calls for hormone treatment and surgery. With all surgeries‚ there is always a risk‚ but with this one it’s an ethical debate if it is right or not. Another reason why is that people are afraid that we will fall down a slippery slope into human cloning or human organ harvesting. Human cloning and organ harvesting

This allows us to find a certain sequence of DNA in a large strand. Southern blotting is also used in cloning techniques. 9. The Discovery of the PCR technique occurred in 1983. This technique is used to copy small amount of DNA unlimited amounts of time. This can play a large role today in forensic evidence as it uses small amounts of DNA‚ it
