- 21: To Clone Or Not To Clone
- By: Ana E-mail: ana79@mail.com To Clone Or Not To Clone Cloning is an issue that has been evolving during time. At the begining, cloning was been researched and was described as something that was hard to reach. Even science fiction movies, such as Multiplicity, were produced about cloning. As the time went through, cloning became a reality. In 1996 "Dolly", the first mammal, a sheep was born. Dolly was created by Ian Wilmut, an embryologist of the ...
- 22: Genetics
- The process of cloning is the process of using the genes of a being to create another being genetically identical to it. Cloning technology has been called the "forbidden fruit of biology" (Begley 54). For years, scientists have been trying to perfect the cloning technique. In Scotland, scientists at the Roslin Institute have finally succeeded. Their success comes in the form of a Finn Dorset ewe named Dolly. Dolly is a clone. Now ...
- 23: Cloning
- Cloning "The benefits of this technique outweigh the risks, and the danger is not what you think". This phrase is in bold across the top of the article The Case for Cloning. In this article J. Madeleine Nash addresses the controversial technique of cloning. Nash is clearly in favor of cloning individual cells for medical purposes. However, he also understands the concern with cloning. Nash's main idea, which is cloning individual human ...
- 24: Cloning
- Cloning Author: Richard Pech per. 7 Cloning, is it the thing of the future? Or is it a start of a new generation? To some, cloning could give back a life. A life of fun, happiness, and freedom. For others it could mean destruction, evil, or power. Throughout this paper, you the reader, should get ...
- 25: Cloning
- Cloning A few years ago if you were to ask someone about the possibilities of cloning they would most likely say it was impossible. This attitude towards cloning has been held into belief up until recently when scientists in Scotland cloned a sheep. And immediately after scientists in Oregon cloned a monkey (Fackelmann 276). The most major ...
- 26: Cloning Today
- Cloning Today A clone is a group of organisms that are genetically identical. Most clones result from asexual reproduction, a process in which a new organism develops from only one parent. The one process of cloning, called nuclear transfer, replaces the nucleus of an immature egg with a nucleus from another cell. Most of the work with clones is done from cultures. An embryo has about ... be discussing the advantages of different types of clones, such as they are useful for research. We will also be discussing the disadvantages and different techniques that result from the cloning of different organisms. First lets start with the history of cloning. The modern era of laboratory cloning began in 1958 when F.C. Steward cloned carrot plants from mature ...
- 27: Human Cloning Is Beneficial
- Human cloning is becoming one of the most controversial topics of our time. With recent technological breakthroughs, whole new fields are opening with remarkable possibilities. With this huge step in science, the world realized that cloning of human beings was no longer a plot of a science fiction movie, but rather a realistic look into the future of science and medicine. Have you ever imagined what life would be if we could eliminate problems such as AIDS, cancer and human organs shortage? This is one of the questions that arise when the subject of cloning is brought up. Cloning is the next generation of medicine and can be beneficial to humanity because of the potential to solve the problems with fertility, to prevent hereditary ...
- 28: Human Cloning Isn't as Scary as It Sounds
- Human Cloning Isn't as Scary as It Sounds The recent news of the successful cloning of an adult sheep— in which the sheep's DNA was inserted into an unfertilized sheep egg to produce a lamb with identical DNA—has generated an outpouring of ethical concerns. These concerns are not about Dolly, the now famous sheep, nor even about the considerable impact cloning may have on the animal breeding industry, but rather about the possibility of cloning humans. For the most part, however, the ethical concerns being raised are exaggerated and misplaced, ...
- 29: Cloning Is Ethically And Moral
- By: Elizabeth E-mail: CutieNJ@aol.com Cloning is Ethically and Morally Wrong The question shakes us all to our very souls. For humans to consider the cloning of one another forces them all to question the very concepts of right and wrong that make them all human. The cloning of any species, whether they be human or non-human, is ethically and morally wrong. Scientists and ethicists alike have debated the implications of human and non-human cloning ...
- 30: Cloning: Background
- Cloning: Background A clone is a group of genetically identical cells. For example, tumors are clones of cells inside an organism because they consist of many replicas of one mutated cell ... structures, called plasmids, are found in some bacteria and yeasts. Techniques of genetic engineering enable scientists to combine an animal or plant gene with a bacterial or yeast plasmid. By cloning such a plasmid, geneticists can produce many identical copies of the gene. Scientists used this technique to clone such amphibians as frogs and salamanders as early as the 1950s. In ... group of Scottish scientists used the procedure to clone a sheep. This event marked the first time a mammal had been cloned in this way ("Clone"). The scientist who started cloning is Ian Wilmut (who led the group) (Recer). He cloned Dolly using the nucleus from the cell of its mother, and it had an exact genetic replica of its ...
