Endangered Species Human Cloning
1,146 words
God 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...

proteins seems an appropriate introduction to our
studies of biology. In order to study proteins we
must first know how to separate then quantify the

Genetically Modified Crops Medical Research

Firstly I would like to say that gene technology
is ethically wrong and certain laws should be made
against it. With the use of gene technology,
genetically modified food has been grown. This is
not natural; its like adding something artificial
into our once naturally grown crops. Medical
tissue engineering is of recent research, and is
appalling to see that this is being encouraged in
the media because this is not a natural food
source, it was been manipulated and modified. The
