    Noting that‚ the rate of success with cloning had always been low‚ statistically supported by Ian Wilmut - had only successfully completed the full organism after 277 trials. However‚ after the success of Dolly‚ it had been found that both therapeutic and reproductive purposes can be performed. Giving examples that disease processes can be investigated

    didn’t develop. 1970- John Gurdon tries the same experiment with the same procedure. The eggs developed into tadpoles but died after they were ready to begin feeding. He later showed that transplanted nuclei revert to an embryonic state. 1973- Ian Wilmut just finishes his doctorate at Cambridge University when he produces the first calf born from a frozen embryo. Cows only give birth to five to ten calves in a lifetime. By taking frozen embryos produced by cows that provide the best meat or milk

    instead of giving the benefits to the society. In addition‚ many years ago‚ a scientist successfully clone a sheep. The cloned sheep was named Dolly and identical to the sheep which the genetic material was derived. However‚ Dolly died in 2003 (Ian Wilmut 1997 as cited in Betsy‚ 2008). Furthermore‚ in cloning Dolly‚ it resulted in the death of many embryos and newborns before success achieved which is 29 embryos were transferred to 13 sheep and only one became pregnant with Dolly. Therefore‚ unexpected

    the irreversible approach- if not the actual realization-of the synthesized‚ plasticized‚ carbon-copied Man"(Rorvik 26-27). Ian Wilmut‚ a genetic scientologist who cloned the first mammal in 1996 which was a sheep feels that human cloning is inhumane by saying‚ "As I will discuss‚ there are no proposed reasons for copying a person that I find ethically acceptable"(Wilmut 33). The positive outlook on human

    scientists created the first successful animal clone. They removed the nucleus from a frog egg and replaced it with DNA from a different frog’s cells. In 1996‚ the first adult mammal‚ Dolly the sheep‚ was cloned by Ian Wilmut (Hutchinson). Instead of taking DNA from an embryonic cell‚ Wilmut took the genetic information from an adult male sheep and injected it into a fertilized female egg through SCNT (Hutchinson). 2.

    The cloning of humans is now very close to reality‚ thanks to the historic scientific breakthrough of Dr. Ian Wilmut and his colleagues in the UK. This possibility is one of incredible potential benefit for all of us. Unfortunately the initial debate on this issue has been dominated by misleading‚ sensationalized accounts in the news media and negative emotional reactions derived from inaccurate science fiction. Much of the negativity about human cloning is based simply on the breathtaking novelty

    You Have No Reason for Cloning Humans Think of walking down the street in thirty years and running into an exact replica of yourself. Is it your twin? No‚ you do not have a twin; it is your clone. Your biological makeup could have been cloned as an embryo and raised separately as an experiment. I bet many of you have seen Star Wars‚ Jurassic Park or many of the other movies that describe cloning. Most of what you see in these movies is false. What you do not know is if that cloning could be

    **INTRODUCTION** What is cloning? Cloning in biotechnology refers to processes used to create copies of DNA fragments (molecular cloning)‚ cells (cell cloning)‚ or organisms. It describes the processes used to create an exact genetic replica of another cell‚ tissue or organism. The copied material‚ which has the same genetic makeup as the original‚ is referred to as a clone. When is cloning done?  Cloning is done to amplify the DNA fragments containing the gene of interest and ensures pure
