Cloning
Cloning Fantastic things happen in this small world. ... Scientists developed the way to copy organism: cloning. Cloning is the process in which a cell, group of cells, or organism that are descended from and are genetically identical to a single common ancestor, such as a bacterial colony whose members arose from a single original cell. ... People believe that there are no humans identical to each other; however, cloning can make this happen. The definition of the cloning is basically, transferring of one’s DNA to another organism, and fully copying an organism. There are a lot of problems standing on the way of cloning. While medical community is pro-cloning, religious, legal, and ethical reasons oppose cloning. Every group has its reason to oppose cloning and to be pro-cloning. Mostly, when people think about cloning, they just imagine reproducing identical copy of one’s organism. However, it is not fully true; theoretically cloning also can reproduce body parts of any organism. Cloning can make scientists study an organism more deeply. ... HCV was the first virus isolated entirely by cloning (Raven, 647). After this event everyone was shocked how powerful cloning could be. For some period, people did not hear anything about cloning. ... After this event scientists even started thinking about cloning human beings. ... Welmut said, it has taken 277 tries to get it right in a sheep and that does not support human cloning. This is not safe of the animals cloned so far, some had shown abnormal growth rates, others have had abnormalities, and some have unexpectedly died (Critics Warn or Cloning). However, regardless of the danger, cloning in general is very advantageous. Human cloning technology could be used to reverse heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cell and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged. We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cure cancer (Yount, 187). ... Cloning, at long last, may be the key to understand differentiation and development cancer.
