And although there are many breakthroughs that could come from this research however there is also a stigma surrounding

Before the famous Dolly the Sheep‚ cloning was not quite what it is considered today. The first example that could be considered “cloning” took place in 1885. Hans Adolf Edward Dreisch discovered that if he shook the two-celled embryos of sea urchins‚ the cells could separate and grow into two identical sea urchins. A couple decades later in 1902‚ Hans Spemann decided to find out if he could do the same‚ this time with salamander embryos. These embryos were stickier than those of sea urchins so

Cloning occurs when a single cell from one parent organism begins to develop and divides. This development organism has the same make-up as its parent. We know that in sexual reproduction‚ it involves two parents. With sexually production organism

Recent scientific breakthroughs on the cloning of cells‚ both human and others‚ have sparked many debates regarding the moral repercussions that might arise as result of careless and unsupervised cloning. In a letter to the editor published in ‘The Age’ on April the 22nd 2015‚ Mr Bruce Banner argued that the cloning of animals and possibly humans as well is a ‘dangerous and frightening’ threat that should not be allowed to continue and be studied any further. With a contrasting view to

Cloning‚ although seen around the world as a very controversial topic‚ has the possibility to cure many problems in the world. One problem that cloning could address is the chance to bring back animals from extinction and save endangered animals. How cloning addresses extinction? There are two main ways of cloning‚ artificial embryo

By cloning embryos‚ it is possible to further medical science‚ assist people with physical diseases‚ and doesn’t actually focus around cloning a human. To begin with‚ cloning can be used in the form of cloning embryos to further the field of stem cell research. For example‚ in the article “Cloning Embryos: Scientific Milestone or Moral Offense?”‚ it is stated that‚ “Stem cells taken from adults‚ though less morally questionable‚ are less likely to grow outside the body and are not as versatile as

advancements are possible through genetic cloning. Many people hear the word cloning‚ and become so appalled that we would ever think of such a thing. They believe that we are not to play God‚ by growing body parts and organs just for research. I agree that genetic cloning is a very sensitive issue‚ both ethically and religiously‚ however‚ the medical and psychological advantages outweigh the few disadvantages. Many religious groups are up in arm about the idea of cloning‚ especially the thought of using
