However‚ human cloning had not been thought possible until the successful cloning of the first mammal‚ Dolly the sheep‚ in 1997. The birth of Dolly was a major scientific and technological breakthrough. However‚ it also raised the possibility that one day humans will be cloned‚ as well as many medical and ethical issues and concerns associated with this possibility. Following the cloning of Dolly‚ many other animals‚ including cows and mice‚ have been successfully cloned. Scientists hope that one

The most notable example of reproductive cloning was dolly the sheep. Another type of reproduction is "recombinant DNA technology‚" or "gene cloning." To clone a gene‚ a DNA fragment containing the desired gene must be obtained from the chromosomal DNA using restriction enzymes and then united with a plasmid

Cloning and stem cell research have come a long way in the past few decades. Expert scientist have the capability of making an exact‚ physical copy of a living body as well using stem cells to cure genetic diseases. Although these two topics are quite common now‚ they weren’t well known when Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein fictional novel was initially published. The idea of cloning may have been new and debatable at the time‚ but Shelley took the idea with a more fictional perspective. With this novel
