Today people go to the super market thinking they are getting good clean healthy products, but instead half of what they are buying has undergone genetic therapy. You pick up a beautiful looking red tomato and you think it has probably been on the vine the longest, but in fact almost all tom...

The science of biology has evolved to the point today that an animal's basic nature can be quickly and permanently changed by altering its generic structure. The possibilities that the genetic engineering of animals can bring us is endless; from the Harvard-Dupont mouse prone to developing ca...

Can we and should we clone humans? Cloning humans has recently become a possibility that seems much more feasible in today's society than it was twenty years ago. It is a method that involves the production of a group of identical cells or organisms that all derive from a single individual. Changes ...

Ever since Scottish scientists cloned an adult sheep, July 1996, people have been thinking about the possibility of cloning humans. One such man has said that this possibility is soon to become a reality, his name Richard Seed. Richard Seed is a physicist who has been involved in fertility research ...

Cloning is a process used to obtain an identical organism asexually. The clone it produces does not only look and think like its donor, its DNA is identical. DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid. It is the substance that contains the genetic information for most organisms. In other words, it con...

As science and technology go full steam ahead into this, the 21st century, we must take a step back and look at all of the moral and ethical aspects of the science that we are developing. The topic raised is whether or not cloning is an acceptable development to be taken advantage of whenever techn...

Modern technology has opened up a gateway from which controversy has emerged: genetic engineering. The history of man has been a long path to immortality. From the first thought of hygiene to the modern idea of genetic engineering, individuals have sought out ways to live longer and healthier lives....

CLONING Cloning is an issue that only recently has come to light. The technology, still in its infancy, has roused strong views in opposition. Supporters feel that, with the careful continuation of research, the technological benefits of cloning clearly outweigh the possible social consequences...

Many people say that everyone in the world has a twin. Today, science and technology has the ability to make this myth reality through the process of cloning. I am strongly against cloning for many reasons. People should not utilize cloning because it would destroy individuality and uniquen...

The Humane Genome Project was an international and collaborative effort whose goal was to complete the mapping of the genes of all human beings. Genome is the word that encloses all of our genes. In a way, the HGP was the culmination of years and years of genetic research since 1911. The hereditary ...

Many people say that everyone in the world has a twin. Today, science and technology has the ability to make this myth reality through the process of cloning. I am strongly against cloning for many reasons. People should not utilize cloning because it would destroy individuality and uniqu...

What if I could clone myself and then clone my clone. So my clone would have to go to work for me and write this article. While my clone's clone is preparing dinner for me at home. When the news first swept the world about the cloning of a sheep, a wave of science-fiction reading journalists a...

Genetics/Cloning It is often asked whether it is right for human beings to manipulate human genes, as if this were in some sense "playing God" by altering fundamental aspects of human makeup (and also that of plants and animals) which are God's business only, or simply that it is dangerous "tamper...

Human Cloning Is It Ethical Or Is It Beneficial or Devastating Human cloning is a big issue in the world today. This has been a controversial issue over the possibilities that, human cloning would become the greatest breakthrough in the scientific world, or is it unet...

Genetic Enhancement: Out of Our Reach How would you feel knowing that a child was killed before it even had a chance to live, or knowing that food you are eating can cause some kind of un-curable disease in the next couple of years? As you know, scientists are always researching new products t...

Patrick Donahoe Nats 104 3-9-00 Herbicide-Tolerant Crops Crop management is a vigorous activity that changes as technologies are developed. Now that were in the new millennium, we are finding new and enhanced ways to improve things that effect us in our everyday lives like, industrial poll...

Human cloning has always caught the public imagination even though scientists are afraid of the public's reaction. For years, scientists have been telling us that human cloning was impossible and would never be possible. Yesterday's science fiction is today's reality. Human cloning means designer ...

It is probably only a matter of time before a human being is cloned. Already animals have been cloned and the race for the first cloned human is well under way, be it legal or not. What will happen when this first human is cloned? Many questions surrounding this topic are asked now and the answer...

Human Genome Project The Human Genome Project (HGP) is an international 13 year effort that began in October of 1990. The main objective of the project is to map the entire human DNA sequence. The project was planned to last 15 years, but rapid technological advances have moved the completion dat...

"To Clone, Or Not To Clone?" Did you ever imagine having a child that is the exact replica of you? Did you ever imagine of having the cure for heart disease or cancer? Well, these fantasies are not far from reach. The way we could reach these fantasies is through a process called cloning...

Human Genome Project When I first heard of the Human Genome Project I thought it was just some minor study of the human DNA. As I dug into it more, I learned that it is a very enormous study led by the DOE (U.S. Department of Energy) and the National Institute of Health . The study started in 1...

The very controversial issue of cloning has been argued over for years. Cloning is a relatively new process to further life. Already scientist's over-seas have created a sheep named Dolly. It took 277 times till they got the sheep to come out with no abnormalities. Many people believe that ...

Molecular Biotechnology in Our Life If you have had a can of soft drink, ate a fruit, or took some head ache medicine this morning - then it's very likely you have used a genetically enhanced product. Genetics is a part of biotechnology that manipulates biological organisms to make products...

Genetic engineering. Is this a genius procedure or simply a case of impatience and hunger for money? After doing further research on the topic, I\'ve found myself torn between opinions about whether or not genetic engineering is practical. The conclusion that I have personally come to is that aside...

Jones 1 The Pros of Biotechnology Biotechnology can be used to help humans. As essayist Cecie Starr and Ralph Taggart write "biotechnology can be used to cure rare diseases." Biotechnology can be used to help any form of life from plants to animals and even food. For more than three bi...
