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...
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...
Introduction On February 24, 1997, the whole world was shocked by the news that Scottish scientists had successfully cloned a sheep. Dolly an artificially cloned mammal was born a star. After the shock, that cloning was not only a possibility but a reality, wore off the out cry against human clon...
As many people already know cloning has become a larger issue in the last few years. Throughout this report I will inform you of everything I know about cloning. I will start off with the definition of cloning. Then I will explore how cloning works. I will present important dates in cloning histo...
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...
Cloning To some people the word "cloning" is a frightening thig. Cloning is the scientists of the world new quest. It is taking a cell from something and making the exact same thing that the cell came from. There are many things that cloning can do that would sound like it could help. Then there ...
The possibility of human cloning, raised when Scottish scientists at Roslin Institute created the first successful animal clone of a sheep, "Dolly." Cloning refers to copying genes and other pieces of chromosomes to generate enough identical material for further study. Two other types of cloning ...
Human cloning is becoming a realistic possibility as time moves on. Scientists know that this study can be completed. On July 5, 1996, a sheep named Dolly was born in the Roslin Institute in Edinburgh, Scotland. Dolly was the first clone of a mammal from an adult cell. The birth of Dolly also intr...
Cloning Cloning is a form of genetic engineering in which the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) of a person, animal ,plant or bactirium is used to produce a perfect or near perfect genetic replica of the original...meaning a new individual is created from a single cell. Despite its relativaly new int...
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 ...
On February 24, 1997, the scientists at the Roslin Institute in Edinburg, Scotland announced their success in cloning an adult mammal for the first time. The cloned sheep was named Dolly. She was the first animal cloned from a cell taken from an adult. It was an accomplishment than science had d...
Cloning How would you feel if someone you loved was on thier death bed and was awaiting a heart transplant from an organ donor, but there wasn't enough time. How grateful would you be if that person had the opportunity to live longer from a cloned heart? This is only one of the benefits of cloni...
On February 22, 1996, Ian Wilmut brought cloning of animals to our attention, when the first animal was successfully cloned, on that history-making day the cloned sheep named Dolly was born. Wilmut took a cell from the udder of a six-year -old ewe and sparked a jolt of electricity to fuse it to the...
You have been told that you are unique. The belief that there is no one else like you in the whole world made you feel special and proud. This belief may not be true in the future.

A clone is the name for a group of organisms or other living matter with exactly the same genetic material. Genetic material consists of genes, the parts of cells that determine characteristics in living things. Many examples of clones exist in nature. In human beings and other higher animals, clone...
On February 24, 1997, the world was shocked and fascinated by the announcement of Ian Wilmut and his colleagues.

Three Different Types of CloningAlthough as far as we know, human cloning has not yet been attempted; there are several different reasons why society might want to use this new science. First a quick definition of the three types of cloning; embryo cloning, adult DNA cloning and therapeutic cloning....
To Clone or Not To Clone? In February 1997, the first genetically cloned sheep named" Dolly" was born. The announcement immediately started the debate of ethical, moral, and scientific implications. (Park 71) There is no doubt that genetic research will be able to offer us invaluabl...
A FUTURE OF CLONINGLet us discuss a future of cloning on animals and humans. We have heard about cloning for many years now.
