Cloning in biotechnology refers to processes used to create copies of DNA fragments (molecular cloning)‚ cells (cell cloning)‚ or organisms. Human cloning is the creation of a genetically identical copy of an existing‚ or previously existing‚ human being or growing cloned tissue from that individual. The term is generally used to refer to artificial human cloning; human clones in the form of identical twins are commonplace‚ with their cloning occurring during the natural process of reproduction

Arzaga‚ Eunisse C. BSA1FHC APPLICATION OF BIOTECHNOLOGY Medicine In medicine‚ modern biotechnology finds applications in areas such as pharmaceutical drug discovery and production‚ pharmacogenomics‚ and genetic testing (or genetic screening). Pharmacogenomics (a combination of pharmacology and genomics) is the technology that analyses how genetic makeup affects an individual’s response to drugs. It deals with the influence of genetic variation on drug response in patients by correlating gene expression or single-nucleotide

English 100 12/14/12 Position Paper Clone Wars Cloning in biology is the process of producing similar populations of genetically identical individuals that occurs in nature when organisms such as bacteria‚ insects or plants reproduce asexually. Essentially it is the production of an exact copy of an original. Cloning has the potential to save human lives by providing needed organs for transplant‚ expand the scientific advantages of research in genetics and fertility‚ as well as cure genetic

Cloning In this essay I will be arguing whether or not human cloning should be legalised. There are strong emotional reactions to cloning human beings‚ however there are also a lot of arguments for cloning. Cloning can be used to benefit the human race and also destroy them‚ but the question is‚ how will we use clones? You could argue that legalising cloning would overall‚ benefit the human race. You could use cloning to create exact replicas of individuals who require a life-changing transplant

Cloning (advantages and disadvantages) On our planet‚ today everything is possible and humans made it that way. We have wide ranged opened sources and we apply those sources in our everyday life and we make something that helps us and whole planet. With making this we also sometimes make some problems with making even it will help us one of the examples of that is cloning which is really helping us but also it makes a huge trouble for people. Cloning is process

What’s the Deal with Human Cloning? Can you imagine living in a world where everyone looked the same? Picture our world without the physical diversity‚ each one of us would be uniformed. Where would we find our identity and what would set us apart? The rise of human cloning research alludes to a world where scientists can create genetic copies of human beings. The discussion of human cloning is important for you to learn about because the topic directly relates to the scientific research and technology

Nichole Hart 2/11/13 Med Law and Ethics Human cloning is the creation of a genetically identical copy of a human‚ a very controversial issue‚ the following tells about some controversies that go along with it. After graduation‚ the students of a private academy were told that they were clones made specifically to donate their body parts to human patients. Despite the fact that the students seem no different from other human beings their teenage happiness‚ feelings and relationships that they

sheep. Some people hope that cloning techniques will be used to clone humans someday‚ while others strongly oppose this use of technology. While cloning humans has many great perks to it‚ it also has a great number of unfortunate consequences. A clone is an organism that is genetically identical to the person or thing that it was derived from. Cloning humans might cause alot of trouble on our planet and may make things worse than they already are. For starters‚ cloning will cause an unbalance on earth
