- Well, so far there are two types of cloning. One is embryo splitting which involves removing the genetic material of a fertilized egg (zygote) with the genetie material of a different life form, the you implant it into a female mammal.The second way is called Nuclear transfer technology this involves removing DNA from an unfertilized egg (oocyte) and then you inject the nucleus that contains DNA to be cloned. Rarely the newly developed cell will divide properly, replicating the DNA; at this point it is still in a 'pluripotent' (stem cell) state, if the cells are then placed into a uterus of a mammal, rarely the organism develops. I hope that this answer helped:)!

Cloning via somatic cell nuclear transfer can also be used to reproductively clone a person by allowing the germinal stage embryo to gestate to full-term. The resulting life is a genetic copy of the DNA donor - a delayed identical twin rather than off-spring. This cloning method was pioneered by researchers at the Roslin Institute in Edinburgh, UK. These scientists cloned the first mammal, a sheep called Dolly. But this method is of little use to the longevity and continuity of an individual self because it only creates a copy of a person's body, not the mental history of an individual self.
However, aside from reproductive cloning, stem-cell research is generally useful for the purposes of longevity and is used in a variety of medical practices, including the healing of spinal-injuries and paralysis, burns, eye-problems, heart defects, and cancer treatments. But because these stem-cell replacements are from donors rather than DNA clones, complications like cancer or rejection can occur.
Therapeutic Cloning
Recently however, Woo Suk Hwang of Seoul National University, South Korea, has developed an improved technique for therapeutically cloning blastocysts to harvest totipotent stem-cells for patients with various diseases and injuries. Unlike the riskier business of matching foreign stem-cells with a patient's tissues, these stem-cells exactly match a patient's DNA because they come from the patient (autotransplantation). If grown to replace injured or diseased organs, tissues or bone, the cloned replacements should be accepted by the patient's immune system without the serious complications and continued medications that usually accompany organ transplantation, skin-grafting, and other forms of replacement surgery. Progress in this area of science could mean that eventually any part of the body will be replaceable, making prosthetics obsolete and allowing people to recover from many diseases and injuries. This continual renewal of areas of the body should postpone death - perhaps indefinitely.

Explain why the terms synthesis and decomposition are appropriate names for their respective reaction types?
Decomposition: Takes the composition of an organism when it dies and breaks it down to tiny particles of simple matter usually becoming a nutrient in the soil. Synthesis: Is combining two or more simple elements that work together to form something new.
When did human cloning first start?
1951 was when the first successful clone of a frog egg was created, though some early attempts at cloning in the 1800's were made. Hans Dreisch was the man in the late 1800's to conduct attempts at cloning a sea urchin.Although the cloning on non-mammals was first accomplished way back in 1952, the world had to wait for another 44 years before the first mammal was finally cloned. The first cloned mammal, a sheep named Dolly was born on 5th July 1996. The birth of Dolly had established the ability of we humans to clone mammals. And being mammals themselves, this was an important milestone for the human race. In this fascinating history of cloning, a major setback came in 2003 when Dolly died at the age of six. The death of this first cloned mammal was followed by an intense debate, about the ethical issues of cloning, which continues even today.A Brief History of CloningCloning is basically the process by which a genetically identical copy of a particular bacteria, plant or animal is produced by asexual reproduction. The term 'clone', was coined by J.B.S. Haldane, an eminent Scottish biologist, in his speech entitled Biological Possibilities for the Human Species of the Next Ten-Thousand Years in 1963. The history of cloning can be traced back to 1880s, when many scientists attempted to prove how the genetic material inside the cells worked. Whilst trying to prove that the genetic material is not lost during cell division, Hans Dreisch cloned sea urchins by separating two cells and growing them independently. In 1902, Hans Spemman repeated the same process with a salamander.History of Cloning PlantsIt is very difficult to trace the timeline of cloning plants, owing to the fact that such cloning of plants has been practiced by humans, since thousands of years, and by the nature, for a longer time. Interestingly enough, there have been quite a few citations about cloning of plants in the cloning history. One such example being the cloning of a full carrot by F. C. Stewart in 1964.The History of Animal CloningThe first successful animal cloning experiment was executed by Robert Briggs and Thomas J. King, when they cloned northern leopard frogs in 1952. In 1962, John Gurdon used the nucleus of fully differentiated adult intestinal cells and cloned South African frogs, thus proving that a cell's genetic potential doesn't diminish as the cell specializes. In 1963, the Chinese embryologist Tong Dizhou cloned the first fish, by inserting the DNA from a cell of a male into the egg of a female. A major breakthrough in the attempts to clone animals came in the form of cloning of Dolly, the sheep, by Ian Wilmut, Keith Campbell and other scientists from the Roslin Institute in Scotland. Since then several other animals, ranging from cat and dog species to camel and Water-buffalo species have been cloned successfully. In 2009, an extinct animal species - the Pyrenean Ibex was cloned, however, it only survived for 7 minutes before becoming extinct again.History of Human CloningOther than the successful attempts at cloning various animal species, the 20th century was also marked by some of the major advancements in the field of genealogy. The successful deciphering of the DNA code in 1968 came as a major boost for the much aspired human cloning. Around 20 years later, in 1988, the Human Genome, i.e. the genome of Homosapiens stored in 23 chromosome pairs, was launched. As things were working fine towards the development of a human clone, a major setback came in the form of the Human Cloning Prohibition Act of 2009, which deemed cloning as unlawful, unethical and an immoral activity. The opposition to cloning of humans came from scientific community, who were not satisfied with the results of animal cloning, as well as the religious community, which regarded human cloning to be an activity interfering with human life and procreation.This was a brief history of cloning, spanning over a period of around 120 years. As of 2009, human cloning is considered to be illegal in 23 countries. The fraternity of pro-cloning scientists and researchers are hoping that human cloning is legalized soon, after which they can get back to their labs, and continue experiments related to the same.

What are the three types of diffusion?
A great example is perfume sprayed in a room. A person standing 15 ft away wont smell it right away, but after a minute or two (it has to diffuse through the air) the person will smell it. Also, if you drop a sugar cube in a glass of water, that basically gives you a perfect visual aid of diffusion. These are the 5 types that I know of: 1. Simple diffusion- occurs when molecules moves from a higher concentration to a lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane without the assistance of proteins or use of energy. This is a form of Passive Transport. 2. Facilitated diffusion-occurs when molecules moves from a higher concentration to a lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane with the assistance of proteins or but not the use of energy. This is a form of Passive Transport. 3. Active transport-occurs when molecules moves from a lower concentration to a higher concentration through a semi-permeable membrane with the assistance of proteins and the use of ATP energy. 4. Endocytosis- large amounts of molecules move toward the inside of a cell. This is a form of Active Transport. 5. Exocytosis- large amounts of molecules move toward the outside of a cell. This is a form of Active Transport.
