Cloning
Cloning In the movie Jurassic Park, we watched as man was able to recreate the existence of dinosaurs using blood and DNA preserved many years ago. This process of taking cells and using it to recreate a lifeform is called cloning. A few year ago man was blest with the discovery of cloning. But with that discovery came many questions. Cloning has been an ongoing topic of debate among the scientific and political community. The constant question ahs arisen of whether or not we can clone a human being. In recent years much evidence has arisen in the field of cloning. Through the analysis of the positive and negative effects of cloning, and a moral analysis, I will propose that cloning be heavily regulated and limited and that cloning in regards to humans be banned. Listing the history, analyzing the benefits and negative aspects, and showing government reaction, I will come to my conclusion. Cloning can be traced back all the way to 1952 when frogs were cloned from the cells were tadpoles. Although the tadpoles died after a few days, the effort to find the key to cloning continued. In 1970 mice embryos were cloned. Then in 1979 the first sheep embryo was cloned. In 1980 followed the cloning of cattle embryo. In 1993 George Washingto
Moreover, there is a lot we do not know about the effects of cloning, especially in terms of aging. Now that cloning has been accomplished, you look forward to new technology. If human cloning were allowed, the potential for exploitation is too great. 1-22-99) Stems cells are taken from human embryos. This powerful tool should only be used for mankind's benefit, and not for his destruction. Having sex is too much fun for us to stop, but religious convictions aside, it will be more for recreation than procreation. A week later, the embryo that had already started growing into Dolly was implanted in the uterus of a surrogate ewe. (Lemonick) His technique was almost identical to Wilmut's except for two key steps. The process of cloning also sparks the argument that controlling creation and death is morally wrong. The addition of powerful growth factors could ensure that the clones develop only into specialized cells and tissue. " These medical advancements could be made possible through cloning.
