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 article on human cloning starts talking about the successful cloning of a sheep and the successful chances in trying to clone a human based on results from monkeys

laboratory animals and‚ moreover‚ humans? As for now‚ the operation in which an entire replica of an animal is produced‚ called "reproductive cloning"‚ is unable to clone humans. However‚ reproductive cloning should be banned everywhere in the world‚ since it is a threat to the environment‚ to human dignity‚

Due to recent discoveries‚ stem cell research will have many future medical possibilities. A recent stem cell breakthrough shows that cloning human organs or body parts to treat patients with injured organs or limb deficiencies could be possible. “The cloning techniques can also be used to grow organs for patients with a failing liver or kidney.” Because the newly cloned organ will be genetically identical to the one being replaced‚ rather than a donated one‚ the chances of it being rejected will

How cloning works On January 8‚ 2001‚ scientists at Advanced Cell Technology‚ Inc.‚ announced the birth of the first clone of an endangered animal‚ a baby bull gaur (a large wild ox from India and southeast Asia) named Noah. Although Noah died of an infection unrelated to the procedure‚ the experiment demonstrated that it is possible to save endangered species through cloning.

to change sex and reproduce. Cloning is the process of producing populations of genetically identical organisms. Cloning in biotechnology is the process used to create copies of DNA fragments or molecular cloning‚ cells or cellular cloning‚ or whole organisms. The most famous clone was a sheep named Dolly whom was created in a lab in Scotland. There are three different types of cloning‚ Reproductive cloning‚ which creates copies of whole animals‚ Gene cloning which creates copies of genes or

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

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
