fertilization. It starts when the female ovulates
producing an egg. This egg then travels into the
fallopian tube where it waits to be fertilized.

sperm in. The sperm that made it then drops its

come at an early around six months of age, they

We dont really know what Ebola has done in the
past, and we dont know what it might do in the
future. (p. 49) According to Eugene Johnson, a
civilian virus hunter, specializing in Ebola, the
essence of the virus itself is one whose existence
is still unintelligible to humans. The knowledge
of the nature of this virus, as well as Marburg
the gentle sister of the three filo virus sisters
(Ebola Zaire, Ebola Sudan, and Marburg), remains
questionable today. In his book, The Hot Zone,

then transplanted the embryo in a recipient ewe,
acting as a surrogate mother. This procedure
occurred late in January of 1996. This was the day
of fusion date for Dolly, which is the natural
equivalent to a conception date. An interesting
note is that three different sheep were involved
in producing Dolly, versus the usual two or one
(in-vitro fertilization). Furthermore, the Roslin
scientists used three different breeds for each

Cloning Of Humans Type Of Cloning

Cloning 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

? To Clone, Or Not To Clone? ? Did you ever
imagine having a child that is the exact replica
of you? Did you ever imagine of having the cure
for heart disease or cancer? Well, these fantasies
are not far from reach. The way we could reach
these fantasies is through a process called
cloning. Cloning is the replication of an exact
genetic copy of an organism by use of a somatic
tissue (or cell) from the donor organism. Cloning
can be used in humans, human organs, or even
animals. There are many ad...

Cloning Of Humans Genetically Identical

CLONING: 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...

Human Cloning Ever since the cloning of the sheep,
people have been wondering weather it is morally
right to clone. Now the time has come where we can
clone human beings and now people are even more
worried about weather it is right or wrong. The
thing that many religious people don t like, is
that cloning was never mentioned in the Bible.
They believe that this means that God has no
intention for us to clone humans so of course we
shouldn t even think about it. There are may other

Just as a fire needs oxygen to burn, the human

essential element for the process of combustion
that goes on constantly in every cell. We
ordinarily do not think of a body metabolism as
combustion, yet that is what is: the controlled
burning of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins to
provide energy. The job of the respiratory system
is to furnish the oxygen that combines with these
fuels in each of the billions of cells, and to
