Cloning Of Animals Enucleated Egg
967 wordsWhat is a Clone? 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. Another type of clone occurs inside a cell. Such a clone is made up of groups of identical structures that contain genetic material, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts. Some of these structures, called plasmids, are found in some bacteria and yeasts. Techniques of genetic engineering enable scientists to combi...

Type Of Cloning Desirable Traits
1,048 wordsGenetic engineering is the changing of an organism's DNA, genetic material to eliminate unwanted traits or to produce desirable traits. The earliest form of genetic engineering dates back to the scientist Gregor Mendel who did experiments with peas. He bred only the peas with the most desirable traits in order to achieve a healthier and stronger pea (McCuen 8). This method, called selective breeding, is still used today with plants and animals in order to increase food production. Corn plants ar...

Nuclear Transplantation Genetic Material
1,360 wordsAs science and technology go full steam ahead into this, the 21 st 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 technology reaches the point where cloning is an every day occurrence. In my view, the answer is yes. I will discuss some of the history of cloning and a great deal of what science will be able to do with ...

Ban Human Cloning Kind Of Thing
1,872 wordsClowns or Clones Cloning is a word heard of only recently within the last 2 or 3 years. Cloning is said to have proved useful in perfecting genetics among animals as well as humans. While human cloning is still a little ways off, animal cloning has already begun. Dolly the sheep was the first to be cloned and then it went on to pigs. Perhaps as we go down this line, we may someday work our way to cloning humans. Human cloning would only be a real benefit to our health and could only lead to a pr...

Mary Shelleys Frankenstein Cloning Of Humans
1,951 wordsThe 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 that the cloning of mammals from body cells has been accomplished, ...
