Advantages: more knowledge about how exactly DNA works and what each codon expresses in an organism. we don't actually know what most of the DNA does. Essentially the advancement itself of being able to clone an organism is the advantage.
Disadvantage: the cloned organism always has a problem that scientists cant figure out. for example the cloned cat Cici at Texas A&M University has seizures and they dont know why (this university is very advanced when it comes to Biology). Naturally also there is the fact that the clone is identical to the "parent" so if people started to be cloned then fingerprint or DNA recognition would not be possible. there would be two or more people with the exact same genetics.

What is the advantages and disadvantages of pBR322 as a cloning vector?
pBR322 advantages is it widely used for the analysis of prokaryotic transcription and translation as well as topological changes in DNA conformation. then the disadvantage is it has only few cloning sites and the selection procedure is therefore time consuming.
What are the main advantages and disadvantages of cloning?
The advantage of cloning is replacing or to clone organs for a specific need although it is illegal to clone an entire human body. The disadvantage is that cloning humans would be able to create custom built people by combining the possibilities in cloning and genetic engineering. The entire body will be the same and also it will effect population too.
