Clone Dolly
715 wordsCloning in the Twenty-first Century Cloning is the making of genetically identical copies of a single cell or organism. Cloning was never talked about much, (When?) unless a person read science fiction or watched movies. Then on February 23, 1997 comma Dolly the Iamb What is an iamb? appeared on the news. Dr. Ian Wilmot, the head of the Roslin Institute in Edinburg, Scotland had led the team who cloned Dolly. Dolly was cloned from the omit 'the' one reproductive tissue of one adult female sheep,...

Clone A Human Body
304 wordsHUMAN CLONING IS A MISTAKE? In an article, ! SS Journal says human cloning research ban would be misguided!" , Senior Medical Correspondent Dan Rutz and Reuters point out that if the government passed the bill on banning human cloning research, it would be a mistake. They argued that since experiments on animals have improved human's lives tremendously, including some new medical findings; by researching on our own genes, we would know even more about humans! | bodies, and might even be able to ...

First Cloned Calf
957 wordsCow Cloning Cloning has been the main topic in the news lately. Due to the success of sheep cloning with Dolly, scientist have been encouraged to experiment with other species which had led to producing Gene, the first cloned calf. Cloning is the somatic nuclear transfer. It has been used for many years but until now, cloning has not been found to be able to take a full grow adult cow and make it have a calf with the same DNA. This report will inform of the recent studies of cow cloning. It will...

Clone Human Organs
2,620 wordsCloning of Humans Right or Wrong Is cloning humans morally and ethically wrong Are researchers taking many unnecessary risks with all the unknown affects it could bring to the human clone and the ethics of our society today The term clone refers to a group of organisms that are genetically identical. Most such clones result from asexual reproduction, a process in which a new organism develops from only one parent (World Book Encyclopedia). To give you a little history of cloning, it began a long...

Scientists To Clone Humans
1,365 wordsGovernmental Banning on human and organ cloning is posing a problem on those educated ones in academia. Researcher and scientist Dr. Ian Wilmot has successfully cloned a sheep, and has gathered from this experiment evidence that strongly proves that human and organ cloning could be performed safely and effectively. Unfortunately, our government has almost immediately banned such cloning in this country. Did they realize the benefits of such a discovery Perhaps they simply believe that it is some...

Stem Cells From Cloned Embryos
923 wordsHuman cloning is the laboratory production of individuals who are genetically identical to another human being. Cloning is achieved by putting the genetic material from a donor into a woman's egg, which has had its nucleus removed. As a result, the new or cloned embryo is an identical copy of only the donor. Human cloning has moved from science fiction into science. One biotech company has already began producing embryonic human clones for research purposes. Chinese scientists have derived stem ...

Clone Into The Old Cell
1,957 wordsAutomatically when people talk about human cloning that tend to be negative. Most reaction is people shouldn't play god or interfere with nature. Of course there are negative consequences that could come from cloning. On the other hand there is so many positive things that could save more lives than it would cost. Yes Cloning involves risky techniques that could result in premature babies and some deaths. That is why public policy needs to be changed on cloning. The medical possibilities are end...

Clone A Frog From An Embryonic Cell
1,367 wordsMultiple Source Essay Cloning: What is the Right thing to do? Cloning offers many applications, especially in medicine, however, in spite of the many advantages, many people still consider the idea of human cloning, and the practice of cloning all together to be immoral. This opinion is rarely based on a careful analysis of facts, often only a spontaneous reaction. Cloning technology has potential for doing much good, research in human cloning should continue, although some applications of it ma...

Research On Cloned Embryos
269 wordsState laws may restrict some or all sources for embryonic stem cells or specifically permit certain activities. State laws on the issue vary widely. Approaches to stem cell research policy range from laws in California and New Jersey, which encourage embryonic stem cell research, including on cloned embryos, to South Dakota's law, which strictly forbids research on embryos regardless of the source. If, however, a fetus is aborted for the health of the mother in South Dakota, the fetus may be use...

Techniques To Clone Humans
871 wordsTo Clone or Not To Clone... Since February 23rd, 1997, when British scientists announced they had successfully cloned an adult sheep named Dolly, the world has been scrambling to limit the possibility of using cloning techniques to clone humans. To most people, the idea of cloning humans, and its moral implications, has been safely confined to the realm of science fiction; as something we didn't have to think about until later. Yet, as the world has slumbered, researchers have arrived at a compe...

Clone Humans
951 wordsThe cloning of human beings has been an issue that many people believe strongly in. The cloning of animals such as cows and sheep have already been successful, and many people think that the cloning of human beings is just the next step. This, however, has not gone over well with the government of the United States. Recently, a hearing has been underway to decide whether cloning should be legal in the United States. In fact, President George W. Bush has said that he will do everything possible t...

Cloning Of Endangered Species
365 wordsThis article, "Cloning Noah's Ark", is about the cloning of endangered species to prevent some animals from disappearing from the planet. The three authors of this article were Robert P. Lanza, Betsy L. Dresser and PhilipDamiani. According to Scientific American, they all share an interest in reproductive biology and animals. Lanza, the vice president of medical and scientific development at Advanced Cell Technology (ACT) in Worcester, Massachusetts, founded the South Meadow Pond and Wildlife As...

Growth Of The Human Organs
578 wordsAlvin A. Soriano February 14, 2000 A pleasant morning Ladies and Gentlemen. I would like to share my views on why cloning should be legalized in the Philippines. We, the experts in the Institute of Technological Technologies feel that with the careful continuation of research, the technological benefits of cloning clearly outweigh the possible social consequences. We think that final products of cloning, like farm animals, and laboratory mice will not be the most important achievement. The appli...

First Cloned Sheep From Embryo Cells
1,914 wordsThe biological definition of a clone is an organism that has the same genetic information as another organism or organisms (Nash, 62-65). From this definition and from information about the science behind cloning, my current view on cloning is that it is ethical, but should not be used until perfected. This statement ignores information about how we can misuse cloning and what consequences occur when the procedure is unsuccessful. I doubt however that we will allow cloning to be misused, and thi...

Yes To Human Cloning
1,208 words"The Clone Rangers" television documentary broadcast with much advance publicity and promotion Sunday night, July 11th, 1999 by CNN offered a keen insight into the low level of the American public's awareness about today's most crucial scientific debate. This year old report failed to mention the late 1998 isolation and cultivation of stem cells outside the human body. The creation and study of such cells through "differentiation" research promises to cure many diseases and revolutionize the pra...

Cloning Process
971 words"A Chip Off the Old Cell" The actual process of cloning is nothing new. It began in the 1970's with the cloning of frogs. Scientists have cloned plants and animals for years since then. Recently, there have been continuing controversies regarding the process of human cloning, and whether or not our society has a use for it. On July 5, 1996, scientist Ian Wilmot (after 277 attempts), created first born cloned mammal which was a healthy lamb by the name of "Dolly". A process called somatic nuclear...
