Cloning of Animals The cloning of animals is a process in which a single cell is taken from the parent organism and is used to reproduce a genetically identical organism. The animal cloned represents an exact duplicate of its parent in every way‚ the one exception of that is the original and cloning will not have the same DNA. The first cloning of an animal was of a sheep named Dolly. An instance of animal cloning is‚ development of twins from a single fertilized egg and asexual reproduction. The

Utilitarianism and Deontology support the legalization of marijuana‚ it produces a greater good for the economy‚ health‚ and positive effect on people’s happiness. The law of duty would be moral‚ and legalizing marijuana stimulates jobs‚ reduces crime rates‚ helps medically‚ and economically produces money. As a Utilitarian‚ they believe that the best action is the one the maximizes utility‚ and in this argument marijuana is a utility that could benefit for the greater good of human beings. In Deontology‚ they

possible to achieve cloning of an adult mammal by nuclear transfer. In this process‚ the nucleus from the cell of an adult mammal is inserted into an ennucleated ovum‚ and the resulting embryo develops following the complete genetic code of the mammal from which the inserted nucleus was obtained. But some scientists and much of the public were troubled or apparently even horrified at the prospect that if adult mammals such as sheep could be cloned‚ then cloning of adult humans by the sameprocess would

Cloning describes a number of processes used to create genetically identical copies of a biological entity. Although these processes can occur naturally‚ such as in some plants and or bacteria‚ the type of cloning that is most known is the ‘artificially copying a whole organism’ cloning. According to the National Institutes of Health‚ scientists remove a mature somatic cell‚ any type of cell‚ except a sperm or egg cell‚ from the animal the scientists desire to copy. The chosen DNA is then transferred

years‚ scientists have been experimenting in the field of cloning. Cloning uses an egg cell and a somatic cell to make a duplicate copy of the organism. It is currently a highly controversial topic in the scientific world. Many people can benefit from cloning. From farmers to patients‚ not only does cloning help scientists discover more about genetics‚ it will also help a lot of people. However‚ there are also ethical issues with cloning‚ such as the use of embryonic stem cells and cross-species

Cloning is a very big mystery and is also an up and coming topic in the science industry. Cloning can be used to either clone a human or any other animal without changing the genetic makeup of the parent one. It can be used therapeutically as well. Cloning when done carefully is an amazing thing and the possibilities are endless. Don’t get carried away with this but it could potentially lead to the cure of cancer. Why should we just keep a perfect gene makeup to one individual if a family were to
