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

The Possibilities of Cloning By many cloning is viewed as humans going into divine territory‚ however cloning is so much more. It is a window to the past and hope for the future. Cloning has the potential bring loved ones back to life after an accident or violent crime‚ as well as allowing personal organs to be grown so people no longer die awaiting a life saving transplant‚ and it could allow women who are unable to bear children to

Twenty-eight percent of traffic accidents occur when people talk on cellphones or send text messages while driving‚ according to a study released by the National Safety Council.1 Texting and driving should be illegal because it distracts the driver and puts people’s lives at risk. The police should be able to pull over a driver if they see them texting and driving to prevent accidents. When a person is texting they have to take all of their attention off the road. When they do this they are clearly

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

Most people can agree that abortion is currently one of the most debated issues in America. Today‚ abortion is legal in the U.S.‚ but that has split us into two sides. The pro-life side believes that “abortion is murder‚” pro-choice supporters say that those opposed to abortion are against free choice and the rights of women (“Abortion” 5). Despite the fact that

Should Scientists Bring Back Extinct Beasts? | | By: Megan Gannon Published: March 21‚ 2013 The Source: http://www.wunderground.com JONATHAN S. BLAIR/NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC This photo shows a museum worker inspecting a replica of a woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius)‚ a relative of modern elephants that went extinct 3‚000 to 10‚000 years ago. Biologists briefly brought the extinct Pyrenean ibex back to life in 2003 by creating a clone from a frozen tissue sample harvested before the goat’s

Cloning Today A clone is a group of organisms that are genetically identical. Most clones result from asexual reproduction‚ a process in which a new organism develops from only one parent. The one process of cloning‚ called nuclear transfer‚ replaces the nucleus of an immature egg with a nucleus from another cell. Most of the work with clones is done from cultures. An embryo has about thirty or forty usable cells but a culture features an almost endless supply. When the nucleus has been inserted

so many more. With cloning‚ that world may be possible‚ concluded “Cloning and the Human Family: Theology After Dolly” by Allen Verhey. A clone is a genetic copy of an individual. Scientifically‚ animals and other species can be cloned by “transferring DNA from a single cell of an animal into an egg cell and creating a relatively exact copy of that animal‚” according to “Genetic Defects Found in Cloned Animals” by Steve Mitchell (Mitchell). It is stated in “Cloning and the Human Family: Theology After
