In today's day and age, absolutely anything can happen, especially in the world of science. Earlier this year, scientists were able to create the first completely cloned healthy cat. This brought to many individuals shock and disbelief. Up until a few weeks ago, the extent of cloning only rea...

There are many scientific benefits to cloning. Cloning is defined as the making of a precise copy of a molecule, cell, or individual plan or animal. The scientific benefits of cloning are endless and know no boundaries. The reason that it knows no boundaries is because not all forms of cloning a...

Early in 1997, Scottish scientist Dr. Ian Wilmot revealed to the world that he had successfully cloned an entire adult sheep. Dolly was the young clone's given name. With this announcement, the world made a collective gasp at the realization that no longer was cloning a "pipe dream" or an ...

A process that has been researched and debated for decades, and for a while thesubject of science fiction novels, magazines, and television shows, is today a practicalreality. News of successful cloning of an adult sheep generated an outpouring ofethical concerns in 1997. These concerns were not a...

In this day and age Cloning is a large topic. This topic entails many moral and ethical issues. Cloning research is being done across the world and has been preformed many times with animals and humans. Why is cloning such a touchy topic? Is it because are people afraid of a modern day Frankenst...

On February 24, 1997, the world was shocked and fascinated by the announcement of Ian Wilmut and his colleagues. A press release stated that they had successfully cloned a sheep from a single cell of an adult sheep. Since then, cloning has become one of the most controversial and widely discussed to...

The Issue: Recently the nation mourned the loss of a former President, and sadly he did not even remember that he was ever the Commander in Chief. Ronald Reagan suffered form Alzheimer's, a disease that affects nearly 4 million Americans. Every day a million U.S. children endure endless fing...

Research Paper: CloningToday, humankind lives in a world of technology, technology that is rapidly advancing and presenting more ways to improve life. The cloning of animals and humans are part of this technology, parts which can ultimately lead to the reassurance and pro-longing of life as we now k...

Cloning Is Not Too Bad After All Scientists spend their whole lives attempting to make the world a better place. Nevertheless, the evolution of science is not always appreciated due to misconceptions or simply a lack of accurate information. Human cloning is a prime example of this! "It&apo...

Abstract This manuscript aims to present an overview of what stems cells are, what is stem cell research, the research and developments, the pros and cons, applications for stem cell usage, ethical considerations, and the future of stem cell research. What are the different types of stem cells, and ...

The applications of science have produced many marvels throughout the ages, from the invention of electricity, to the cures for many diseases. In 1981, a great new discovery was made. Researches discovered a new type of cell called stem cells. Stem cells are unspecialized cells that can make more by...

Embryonic stem cells are undifferentiated cells that can divide indefinitely and develop into more mature, specialized cells. In the course of development, they ultimately become skin cells, neurons, muscle, blood cells and every other of the 220 cell types that make up the tissues and organs in the...

Stem-cell research is a miraculous medical breakthrough because it holds the cure for many serious illnesses. However, there is a great deal of controversy involving this topic. The sources of these cells scientists are most interested in are spare embryos created in fertility clinics. These embryos...

Since the death of former President Ronald Regan, federal funding of embryonic stem cell research is a topic which continues to be present in our headlines. Some people feel that embryonic stem cells could produce a cure for the devastating disease of Alzheimer\'s. Nancy Reagan is now trying to infl...

Has embryonic stem cell research finally reached its final days? The topic of embryonic stem cell research has been a controversial and complex one from the start. It has pitted religious leaders and members of the scientific community against each other. Religious leaders and those against the r...

Cloning and stem cell research, which have been a big issue ever since Hans Spemann first raised the question of nuclear equivalency in 1938. The controversy behind cloning is that this will give scientists too much power, and many people believe that cloning should not be allowed because it is aga...

The Cloning War: Moral or Immoral?Outside the lab where the cloning had actually taken place, most of us thought it could never happen. Oh we would say that perhaps at some point in the distant future, cloning might become feasible through the use of sophisticated biotechnologies far beyond those ...

Before giving this assignment to work on I was 100 percent against stem cells research. But due to extension research I found out that stem cells can provide us with a myriad of possibilities in medical technology, but not without bringing with it serious moral and ethical dilemmas. For the s...
