The issue of cloning has be come a great topic for the past few years.
             The questions of cloning or not to clone have many reasons for either option.
             How to define cloning. To use a good definition the Medical
             Association defined cloning as the production of genetically identical organisms via somatic cell nuclear transfer. Somatic cell nuclear refers to the process at which the nucleus of a somatic cell of an existing organism is transferred into an oocyte from which the nucleus has been removed. Cloning is distinct from techniques such as embryo splitting and twinning. In other words cloning is the method of producing a baby that has the same genes as its parent.
             In February in the year of 1997. Ian Wilmut, an embryologist and his colleagues at Roslins Institute in Scotland were able to clone a lamb called Dolly. Before cloning was thought of to be unrealistic, but now there's real living proof to show this technology exists. The cloning of Dolly brought the question of, "To clone human beings, or not to clone human beings."
             Through cloning, research can go on. It's hard to say what things can be done and what things can't be done if cloning isn't allowed. If cloning is allowed we can learn a lot about cell differentiation, and we can also learn about how to produce human organs without having to produce human beings. Also if cloning is allowed, they may be able to develop technology to allow easier genetic testing and fixing problems such as spinal cord injuries, cancer, Tay-Sachs disease, and many more others. (Tay-Sachs disease is an auto somal recessive genetic disorder that could be prevented by using cloning to ensure that a child does not express the gene for the disorder.)
             Cloning organs is also another major reason why cloning should be allowed, for organ transplants. There have always been high demands for organs. But some others also argue for this type of cloning,
