The science technology and knowledge of science have gradually expand and tremendous improve over decades. Cloning research is one of many enormous breakthroughs in Science. The issue of cloning have always been controversial because there are always been an argument between religious belief and S...
Send in the Clones It is hard to say if cloning is an answer to a problem or just another problem for the human race. There have been books, movies, and even stories about mankind creating their own species of humans. A good example of what could happen if mankind learns to clone itself is Mar...
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...
Biotechnology is an unstoppable reality, and it should be something closely watched (Thompson). Biotechnology concerns human beings, problems concerning plants, animals and the environment. There is a great range of issues and topics when talking about biotechnology. However, the main question is wh...

LIFE The greater mankind's knowledge becomes, the harder it is to define the idea of life. This difficulty is curious since almost all human beings fell that they know, without any ambiguity, the difference between something alive and something dead. However, our advancing knowledge tells ...
Cloning Who has authority over life and death? Certainly is not a human decision, science has given us a variety of advances to achieve better life for humans, animals and plants. To that extent it's agreeable, but to define the way life is conceived? Everywhere in the word we can see how grea...
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...
What Is Cloning?Cloning is the production of multiple, identical offspring. A clone is an animal who is genetically identical to its donor "parent". We now know that this can be achieved using cells derived from a microscopic embryo, a fetus, or from an adult animal. Cloning from adult animals was i...
The Future of Cloning 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 (Grolier 220). It i...
Cloning - "A Step in The Right Direction"It all began with the experimentation of Dolly - the first genetically cloned animal. Since this scientific breakthrough, President Clinton, realizing the effects this would have on the human race as a whole, banned the cloning of humans for five years. How...
Many animals are cloned over the past fifty years. It first started in the 1950s when scientists were able to clone frogs, producing identical individuals that carry the genetic characteristics of only a single parent. Then, mice were first successfully cloned in the 1980s. These animals are small a...
IntroductionGenetic engineering is actually a very new branch or science, and is still in its developing stage. It is said to have first begun when an English scientist saw the cell walls of cork through a microscope in 1655. That spawned an interest in microbiology, which eventually formed the br...

ANIMAL CELLS My cell is the animal cell It really depends on which cell you are talking about - different cells do different things. Such as skin cells. They form a barrier on the outside of the body which protects the organs and tissues inside. It stops them getting damaged by bumps and knocks and ...
CloningWhat is Cloning?Cloning is the production of one or more individual plants or animals that are genetically identical to another plant or animal. Nature itself is the greatest cloning agent. In about one of every 75 human conceptions, the fertilized ovum splits for some unknown reason and prod...
In today\'s society, we have made great strides towards living longer, healthier, and more productive lives. With current medical technology, we have stopped smallpox, eradicated polio, restored vision to the blind, and transplanted a human heart. Now it seems that we have made these great efforts t...
Twenty years ago, scientists only theorized that they could modify living organisms. However, what was once only science fiction is becoming today\'s reality. Genetic Engineering can always be an advantage to someone. Jeremy Rifkin, president of the Foundation on Economic Trends, stated that \"not t...
BacteriaThe two most basic types of cells are eukaryotic and prokaryotic. Animal cells fall under the eukaryotic classification while bacteria, which will be the topic discussed, fall into the prokaryotic classification. Bacteria have a wide variety of characteristics, which includes, cell structur...
The idea of a perfect race was first thought of way back during World War II, by Adolf Hitler. He wanted a nation of tall, healthy, intelligent, blonde-haired humans and these were the beginnings of biological engineering. The experiments carried out on the Jews, in the concentration camps, were utt...
Human Cloning: The Next Frontier Imagine a world without cancer, leukemia, baldness, kidney failure, heart disease, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and dozens of other diseases. No couple would be infertile, and gay people could have children of their own. No more endangered species would be ...
CloningImagine that you were told you could never walk again due to losing a limb in a near death car accident. Imagine that your doctor informs you that your doctor informs you that no donor could be found to replace a damaged lung or liver that has caused you much pain and suffering. Now imagine a...
CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONAll living things are made of the same basic building blocks, cells. A human is made of 65 trillion cells. Cells are everywhere, on you skin, in your blood, and even on your tongue. In fact, your blood is clear but red blood cells are what make your blood red. Most liv...
Intercourse is how children are made, or is it? Children can also be made in labs. Through the process of cloning. Cloning is known as nuclear transplantation, or somatic cell nuclear transfer. This process involves removing the nucleus from an egg cell , and then transplanting the DNA from and ...
