Wilmut And Dr Unicellular Organisms
1,428 wordsThe biological definition of a clone is an organism that has the same genetic information as another organism or organisms ("Cloning", 1997). From this definition and from information about the science behind cloning, my current view on cloning is that it is ethical. This statement ignores information about how we can misuse cloning and what consequences occur when the procedure is unsuccessful. I currently do not think cloning should be used until it is perfected. I doubt however that we will a...

Endangered Species Human Cloning
1,146 wordsGod created a man, and from one of his ribs, he created a woman. Then, the two of them created a new life. This was all naturally done. It was God's most wonderful creation. Cloning brings up a life dilemma. Cloning puts in a single or a group of individuals the power of creating and granting life. And this is done by basically duplicating one individual, by creating a twin of somebody else. Furthermore, cloning is a life dilemma because it makes the whole human race to choose one more time betw...

Human Cloning Surrogate Mother
1,762 wordsTwenty years from now, as you are walking around the square in Wilkes Barre, you pass someone who looks exactly like you. They have your same brown eyes, round face, light brown hair, short stature, and even the same dimples you possess. Can you imagine the shock and even fright that may accompany such a sighting? The world was bewildered when the news that an adult mammal was produced without any eggs being fertilized with sperm. The results of Dolly surprised society and the idea that human cl...

Organ Transplant Transgenic Animals
1,241 wordsSince the late seventies scientists have been cloning mammals using cells taken from embryos. In July 1996, medical history was made when a sheep named Dolly was cloned. The only thing that set Dolly the sheep apart from the other clones was that she was cloned from an adult sheep cell. Before Dolly was cloned, scientists thought adult cell cloning was impossible. A clone is defined as a group of genetically identical cells. The goals and purposes for cloning range from making copies of those th...

Ethical Implications Of Human Cloning
1,549 wordsCloning has been going on in the natural world for thousands of years. A clone is simply one living thing made from another, leading to two organisms with the same set of genes. In that sense, identical twins are clones, because they have identical DNA. Sometimes, plants are self-pollinated, producing seeds and eventually more plants with the same genetic code. When earthworms are cut in half, they regenerate the missing parts of their bodies, leading to two worms with the same set of genes. Any...

The Issue Of Human Cloning
1,635 wordsHuman cloning is a big issue in the science world. When people think of human cloning they think of the positive aspects of the issue. Having a cloned superstar around, being able to have a person reborn after a tragic death and even as far as using a cloned person for spare parts. Cloning could affect the human race. Although there are good reasons why cloning should remain legal, there are just as many reasons why this procedure could have negative affects. Health risks can be very serious whe...

Human Cloning Technology Bible Thumper
2,546 wordsArgumentative Paper (1) In United States, many governmental initiatives, regarding the development of science, are still affected by considerations of conventional morality, which are based on obscure Christian dogma. One of the best examples of it is George W. Bush vetoing the bill, which would allow Federal financing for the human cloning research program. Republican Bible-thumper's in the Congress greeted this news with the thunderous applause, as it was seen on TV. Just like in time of Galil...

Cloning Of Humans Type Of Cloning
1,364 wordsCloning The concept of cloning, introduced by scientists and adopted by modern popular vocabulary, is one of the most emotional and controversial issues. Cloning became a subject of worldwide public interest and discussions in 1997, when scientists of Roslin University produced and demonstrated Dolly the cloned sheep, though the history of cloning experiments and tests on reproductive techniques goes back for more than a century. Cloning used to be an item of usual terminology of scientists, def...

Reproductive Cloning Sexual Reproduction
1,706 wordsHuman Cloning There is no other issue throughout American history, which has produced such controversy across opinion of the general public. Not slavery, prohibition, or abortion has aroused such a significant dispute regarding specific dilemma, than cloning did.

Clone A Human Cloning Cloning
817 wordsCloning Cloning is one of the most controversial topics in biotechnology and biomedical science today. Cloning is a technology that must be widely researched before any cloning takes place. In turn, governments take responsibility for what laws on cloning they enforce, and how these laws are enforced. The task of this paper is to explain the meaning of cloning and emphasize some important problems related to cloning process. In 1997 the first mammal, a sheep named Dolly was cloned by the group o...

Adult Dna Cloning One Of The Most Important
1,368 wordsHuman Cloning Science is one of the greatest powers on Earth and some people compare it to magic. The reason for such controversial attitude is first of all the nature of science, which is the art of explaining everything in this world in scientific terms. The problem is that many people are not ready to accept the new information and learn the other side of many different things they previously had other opinions about. People couldnt believe the Earth is round-shaped, inquisition burned scient...

Cloning Of Humans Genetically Identical
1,403 wordsCLONING: HAS SCIENCE GONE TOO FAR? INTRODUCTION For years the subject of cloning has captured the imaginations of authors, movie directors and much of the human population. Cloning is the prospect of creating an animal or even a person that is genetically identical to its parent. Until recently the subject seemed farfetched and fictional, because no one really realized how close we had actually advanced in cloning research. It was during February of 1997 that an embryologist, Dr. Ian Wilmut, ann...

Wilmut And Dr Unicellular Organisms
2,092 wordsThe biological definition of a clone is an organism that has the same genetic information as another organism or organisms. Thus, an elaboration on the history, techniques, ethics, and reasons for researching the technology of cloning is necessary. A clone is an organism derived asexually from a single individual by cuttings, bulbs, tubers, fission, or parthenogenesis reproduction. Parthenogenesis reproduction is the development of an organism from an unfertilized ovum, seed or spore. Hence, clo...

2,049 wordsThe first thing that must be cleared up is what is cloning, and what is a clone. A clone is an organism derived asexually from a single individual by cuttings, bulbs, tubers, fission, or parthenogenesis reproduction (" Cloning" , 1997). Pathogenesis reproduction is the development of an organism from an unfertilized ovum, seed or spore (" Pathogenesis" , 1997). So cloning, biologically speaking, is any process in which production of a clone is successful. Therefore, the biolo...

1,397 wordsThe first successfully cloned mammal was created on February of 1997. It was a breakthrough in scientific research when the Scottish scientists cloned a sheep by the name of Dolly. The method of cloning requires the extraction of DNA from anywhere on a subjects body and inserting that DNA into a womans egg. Worldwide attention was turned to the prospect of human cloning and with a push for sweeping prohibition (Tribe 459) legislatures around the world banned any research related to cloning becau...

Well, ever since most of us have been young, we can recall hearing this at least once or twice. The one thing to be questioned here is, Could it be true? As of now, there is no proof that it is true, but if science keeps advancing as it has been, then in a very short period of time, this could be a true statement. The way this would happen would be through the new technology of...
