Benefits of cloning

The Benefits of Responsible Human Cloning        On an unremarkable afternoon in July of 1996, in an unremarkable shed in Scotland, a lamb was born. This lamb was to spark a controversy that would be one of the defining arguments of this era. This lamb, simply named "Dolly" (after Dolly Parton in reference to the mammary cell used as the donor), was the first clone to be born using specialized cells from an adult mammal. The fact that the lamb was cloned from these specialized cells -

Cloning is an up and coming medical breakthrough that will benefit the lives of everyone immensely. On the contrary, we as a nation may never be able to experience all of what cloning technology has to offer. The governments is planning on banning or limiting the use of cloning in the United States. Cloning can improve our means of society, and banning it will be putting the good of America on the back burner. The medical benefits of cloning have the potential to be the greatest breakthroughs in

For starters, cloning has said to solve the continuous problem of infertility by inserting a clone embryo into the woman’s body. This guarantees infertile couples a child, as opposed to wasting time and money on other painful and emotional procedures that don’t offer this guarantee. The next benefit offers an immense amount of growth in regenerative medicine and assists those with physical disabilities by producing clones of themselves. Why clone themselves if they have a disability? Scientists can

Parkinson’s) and over twenty-five million have been diagnosed with diabetes (Statistics about Diabetes). Cloning could offer a cure to these diseases and more. A clone is defined as an identical copy of an organism or cell, produced from the genetic material of a single organism (Cloning). Although the process of cloning is still developing, it is quickly becoming a reality. There are two distinct types of cloning: reproductive and therapeutic. Both processes can be achieved using the same technology called

What would you think if you were to able to talk to an exact clone of yourself? Most people think that cloning is part of science fiction but can be done and in June of 1997, scientists in Scotland were successfully able to clone a sheep. This major step in cloning raised question in the scientific world. Many people ask is cloning ethical to humanity? To some people, being able to clone is like “playing God”. To me, is beneficiary to humanity if used in a manner to help, not harm. Statistics from

Benefits of Cloning vs. Antiquated Religious Beliefs     When one thinks of cloning, what comes to mind?  Movies such as "Multiplicity" can give the lay person a very distorted image of cloning.  In this particular movie, actor Michael Keaton plays a father who cannot handle his crazily busy lifestyle.  In an effort to be the perfect father, husband and employee, he has himself cloned fairly easily at a nearby medical center.  The three clones each have their own personality: one is sarcastic

Cloning is the process of creating an organism that has an identical genetic copy. Their DNA strands are the same (What is cloning? 2014). In human nature, cloning takes place with the birth of identical twins. Embryo twinning is the process early in the copulation of an organism in which the embryo splits and starts dividing separately. Since they started from the same fertilized egg, the organisms born are identical. Artificially, this can be done in a lab on a petri dish. Somatic cell nuclear

1. Counter-argument: It has a great contribution to organ replacement. When scientists are dealing with organ replacement using cloning technique, they no longer use Reproductive Cloning Technique (RCT) but they use Therapeutic Cloning Technique (TCT). Both techniques require the same laboratory procedures just that in RCT, they will insert the cloned embryos into the womb to grow until birth and in TCT, they will kill the cloned embryos for the stem cell. This stem cell is what the scientists get

even benefit society? Cloning is the process of making an exact copy of a plant or animal. Being able to clone organisms can benefit society and living organisms. Some people question cloning and have concerns over the ethics of it; they wonder if we would be playing God by making clones. Cloning should be legal because of the beneficial opportunities it could present regarding to health, animals, and agriculture. One of the reasons cloning should be legal is because of the health benefits of cloning

Human cloning has not been legally used in humans because many people and experts are still discussing its effectiveness, worthiness and effect on humanity. Human cloning, also known as human genetic engineering, can be divided into two main types, which are therapeutic cloning, growing cloned tissue from individual, and reproductive cloning, genetically identical copy of an individual. Human cloning have drawn people’s attention because people are become more concerned about health problems and
