Biology of Cloning :: essays research papers

Cloning: the process of copying one’s DNA to create an identical organism through nonsexual means. To Clone a human there are 5 Steps. 1. First you need to get an adult human female and Isolate the nucleus from a somatic (non-reproductive) cell. The complete genetic material of the organism is in the nucleus. To get the cell nuclei this step is repeated many times. A very small needle and syringe (suction device) is used to poke through the cell membrane to capture the nucleus and remove it from the cell. 2. From a female, retrieve unfertilized egg cells (reproductive). Since not all of them will survive the various steps of cloning many eggs are needed. 3. Remove the egg cell's nucleus, one-half of the human genetic material. To poke through the cell membrane to capture the nucleus and remove it from the cell a very small needle and syringe (suction device) is used. 4. Into the egg cell that has no nuclear material, insert the nucleus, with its complete genetic material, isolated from the donor mammal in Step 1. Now contains all traits from the donor adult is the egg's genetic material. This egg is now genetically identical to the original donor adult. 5. Into a female's womb the egg is placed. The eggs that mature in a woman’s stomach are of a very small percentage. Soon the eggs that survived will develop into embryos. The egg matures in the womb. Then, when the baby is born, it is genetically identical (a clone) to the donor human. For or against there has been a lot of dispute whether we should clone people or not, in my personal I think we should. We could rid the society of mentally, physically retarded people, rid it of disables for future generations, we can get more intelligent DNA and create a generation of superior humans, thus increasing our knowledge and making the race smarter.
