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...

Cloning Of Humans Animal And Plant
1,581 wordsIf you pay any attention to the news whatsoever youve probably heard about cloning. Cloning is the most controversial issue today. Quite simply put, cloning is duplicating or making a copy of something, usually a cell or DNA. Scientists for a while now successfully have been testing it out on animals. A clone, however, is only genetically identical to its donor, not physically or behaviorally identical. Cloning is a very touchy topic at the moment because it is a question of ethics and morality....

Work Of Art Type Of Person
1,258 wordsWhen Walter Benjamin wrote The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction in 1969, I am sure he didnt expect it to parallel the arguments of todays discussions on the ethics of cloning. In the short shadow of the replication of Dolly the sheep, and five little piglets from Virginia comes the discussion on if this practice should really be allowed, and if so, what limits do you set? How can you look in the eyes of people who have had there family members pass away because the cloning of pi...

Pros And Cons Nerve Tissue
1,144 wordsCloning has many more advantages than disadvantages. The definition of cloning is to duplicate an organism. Through cloning, you could help thousands of people and animals. Cloning can totally reduce organ donor lists. Cloning can also bring back endangered species. Advanced cloning is going to happen, just as long as somebody can fund it, says Dr. Esterverks, a biology teacher at Nantucket High School. This quote almost makes cloning undebatable because cloning appears to be inevitable. Debatin...

241 wordsOf all the terms coined by scientists which have entered popular vocabulary, clone has become one of the more emotive. Strictly speaking a clone refers to one or more offspring derived from a single ancestor, whose genetic composition is identical to that of the ancestor. No sex is involved in the production of clones, and since sex is the normal means by which new genetic material is introduced during procreation, clones have no choice but to have the same genes as their single parent. In the s...
