Replacement cloning is a theoretical possibility, and would be a combination of therapeutic and reproductive cloning. Replacement cloning would entail the replacement of an extensively damaged, failed, or failing body through cloning followed by whole or partial brain transplant.
therapeutic cloning
reproductive cloning - making a full living copy of an organism; requires a surrogate mother
genetransferring is an engineering process where as cloning does not need genetical engineering whole
When a clone is made without the use of artificial cloning. Natural cloning: Twins, mitosis, asexual reproduction Artificial cloning: SCNT, therepuetic + reproductive cloning.
Somatic, Reproductive, Therapeutic
the answer is this has cells and the other doesn't.
Reproductive cloning scientist investigate about cells, an egg cell and mix the nucleus, therefore a sollution of the egg cell transfers the nucleus of the somatic cell into the eggcell, then they add mitosis to the egg cell containing the somatics DNA, resulting in an 16cell embryo then it is placed in the womb of a female to create a clone. While therapeutic cloning people look at embyos and how they are formed.
The most discussed type of cloning is reproductive cloning, producing a genetically identical copy with fatalities up to 95 percent. Therapeutic cloning is research based involving stem cells. Recombinant DNA technology involve injecting DNA .
Replacement cloning is a theoretical possibility, and would be a combination of therapeutic and reproductive cloning. Replacement cloning would entail the replacement of an extensively damaged, failed, or failing body through cloning followed by whole or partial brain transplant.
One can find information on therapeutic cloning from Wikipedia. Therapeutic cloning involves cloning cells or tissue from an identical twins are commonplace.
therapeutic cloning
This is an ethical question and is based on personal opinions.There are many types of cloning and two of them are reproductive and therapeutic. Usually when people think that cloning is ethically right, they are mostly focusing on therapeutic cloning which is only creating a whole new single body part from a single cell. People who generally think that cloning is wrong are focusing more on the reproductive cloning which creates an entirely new organism.Both sides have their pros and cons. For example, therapeutic can create new body parts for a sick person and save their lives, using the same person's cells. But reproductive cloning may cause many problems such as people have too similar DNA and letting new diseases arise.My personal opinion is that cloning should be allowed for therapeutic reasons only but should be controlled so the research does not get out of control. If people were able to learn how to clone someone or something, this could cause multiple issues for humans and other species.
therapeutic cloning
stem cell cloning and stem cell research are the same, they both do replication(clone) BUT the only difference lies in the purpose for which the clone would be created. Stem Cell Cloning-the clone is transferred to the body of a woman and allowed to go to term(reproduction) while Stem Cell Research is use for transplantation(therapeutic) Therapeutic' cloning is not therapeutic for the clone, who will die in the course of its cells being taken when it is 5-7 days old. Such cloning is, moreover, reproductive, since it involves the creation of an embryo, although this embryo will not survive to the point of being born.Therapeutic helps the patients to recover if she/he have a bone marrow by means of transplantation.
