What are embryo splitting?
The technique of embryo splitting involves removing an embryo. Individual cells from this embryo are removed and then placed into petri dishes that contain the correct nutrients and hormones for growth. Each of the removed cells now divides to form a new embryo. These embryos are then implanted into the uterus of surrogate mothers. These surrogate mothers will then give birth to identical young.
