Genetic Cloning

People in California did not vote to ban cloning because they may have believed in the potential benefits of cloning technology for medical and scientific advancements. Additionally, ethical concerns about restricting research and innovation in the state may have played a role in the decision.

Yes it does the genetics carry on through cuttings because your taking a mother plant branch and forcing it to root and presto! You got your self an exact copy as the mother plant.

the right way of living

A good Christians view on cloning is no. No cloning.

The Australian Museum's head of evolutionary biology, Dr Don Colgan is leading a team of scientists in an attempt to bring the Tasmanian Tiger back from extinction.

Dr Colgan led the team in extracting fragments of DNA from the body of a preserved Tasmanian Tiger pup which had been preserved in alcohol 137 years ago.

The next step should be to attempt to tease whole chromosomes from the fragmentary bits of DNA salvaged from the preserved pup.

Dr Colgan has already stated that this attempt (at its present funding) only has an eight to ten percent chance of success.

it is because if u clone an animal u can kill it or damage its internal organs

Yes, since it does not rely upon the death of humans to save others. Plus, 'cloned' organs would be (almost) exact copies of the patient's original organ, hence there would be far fewer rejection issues and so less need for (semi-toxic) immunosuppresive drugs post-transplant.

Denture clone is a duplicate denture or spare denture.

Some dentures are still made with porcelain denture teeth, and with this known fact, a clone denture cannot be made with porcelain denture teeth. Cloned dentures are made for temporary uses such as an emergency backup denture. If you are searching for new dentures, a cloned denture should not be of choice because it is a copy of your original denture.

That is if the denture teeth are worn down, so will the cloned denture teeth be worn down. If some of your denture teeth are chipped, so will the cloned denture teeth be chipped as nothing on the denture will change, meaning its structure.

If your dentures are loose, then your best solution may be to take your denture to a dentist where it can be relined so that it fits snug. If you are still in the market after you get your denture lined again, your temporary backup denture solution would then be a cloned denture or duplicate denture.

1. It will be an EXACT duplicate of your existing denture made with new, high impact, break- resistant, denture base material (pink gum material).

2. The teeth will be EXACTLY the same shape and size of your original denture. The shade of the teeth can be made lighter or darker upon request.

3. The best candidates are new dentures immediately after they have been fitted and all adjustments have been made because there is no tooth wear, but any denture, new or old, can be cloned.

4. Denture cloning is only suggested for well-fitting, comfortable dentures - the only reason being the duplicate is an exact copy of the original denture.

5. Any necessary repairs to your existing denture, including breakage, missing teeth, holes, thin areas, can and must be repaired before the clone mold is made.

6. Clones are an excellent alternative for elderly, home-bound patients who may have difficulty getting to a dental office.

7. A clone denture eliminates the "breaking in" phase of a new denture.

8. An ideal time for a clone to be made is when your denture needs repair due to a loose tooth or fracture. Your denture will need to go to a dental lab for repair. A clone mold can easily be made at this time.

Plants have been cloned for thousands of years, specifically some varieties of grapes in Europe. More recently viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms, worms & insects, tadpoles & frogs, fish (carp), mice & rats, rabbits, ferret (Libby & Lilly), domestic cats (Copy Cat and Little Nicky), dogs, wolves, goats, mouflon (wild sheep), domestic sheep (Dolly), camel, an extinct Pyrenean Ibex in 2009 for seven minutes, pigs, deer (Dewey), cows (thirteen of them), Indian bison, mule (Idaho Gem, Utah Pioneer, and Idaho Star), horses (five of them), African wild cat, rhesus monkey.

Excellent question. Clinton abolished any scientific research regarding cloning and Bush followed suit. However, parts of Europe are still doing some tests in this area. Members of the UN are gearing up to debate highly the banning of human cloning. The guise is really to hide behind medical research (more organs available such as hearts, kidneys for those who need them) but this is a highly dangerous area to get into. 125 scientific and patient organizations from around the world have signed and presented a letter to the UN. One country of the UN, Costa Rica is backed by nearly 60 countries, including the U.S., for comprehensive banning on cloning. This includes both reproductive cloning to make babies, and the creaton of human embryos for use in medical research. Don't sit back and relax because cloning does go on under secrecy, so who knows what governments are involved. The other group of countries, led by Belgium, and backed by over 20 countries, wants a ban on reproductive cloning only. They argue for the right of stem cells grown from cloned embryos might lead to cures for countless diseases. Span has switched away from supporting a blanket ban because of its change from a conservative to a socialist gov't., after elections in March 2004. Britain funds and supports therapeutic cloning. It may come to a point that each country could quite possibly decide if their country should agree or disagree to cloning. ARGUMENTS USED AGAINST AND IN DEFENSE OF HUMAN CLONING: AGAINST: Cloning might lead to the creation of genetically engineered groups of people for specific purposes, such as warfare or slavery. Cloning might lead to an attempt to improve the human race according to an arbitrary standard. Cloning could result in the introduction of additional defects in the human gene pool. Cloning is unsafe. There are too many unknown factors that could adversely affect the offspring. A close might have a dimished sense of individuality. A clone might have fewer rights than other people. Doctors might use clones as sources of organs for organ transplants Cloning is at odds with the traditional concept of family. Cloning is against God's will. Some aspects of human life should ge off limits to science. IN DEFENSE OF: Cloning would enable infertile couples to have children of their own. Cloning would give couples who are at risk of producing a child with a genetic defect the chance to produce a healthy child. Cloning could shed light on how genes work and lead to the discovery of new treatments for genetic diseases. A ban on cloning may be unconstitutional. It would deprive people of the right to reporduce and restrict the freedom of scientists. A clone would not really bea duplicate, because environmental factors would mold him or her into a unique individual. A clone would have as much of a sense of individuality as do twins. A clone would have the same rights as do all other people. Cloning is comparable in safety to a number of other medical procedures. Objections to cloning are similar to objections raised against previous scientific achievements, for example, heart transplants and test-tube babies, that later came to be widely accepted. As you can see Naruto, this is a complex issue. While many lives could be saved through more heart, liver, kidney transplants by cloning, in the wrong hands, armies could be created, and think of this: What if Hitler or Hussein could be cloned! Humans should be careful what they wish for. The one point that seems to be missing from all of these arguments, on either side of the question, is the acknowledgment that efforts to clone human beings are going to continue, whether under governmental aegis or not. So perhaps the real question should be whether governments should remain engaged in order to control or guide the process, or whether they should simply ban cloning and leave it up to the non-participating governments or even underground laboratories? No we do not need to, we just want to. Cloning technology holds the key to solving a lot of the world's problems that might not otherwise be fixable. If you want a cure in the near future for lots of diseases like Parkinsons, cancer, etc, then yes we really need to study cloning.

Cloning is asexual because in order to clone, no mate is necessary. There is only one parent and the offspring is identical. Although, one could argue that cloning itself is whole different type of reproduction because the parent is not splitting in half and the offspring could be born from an organism with no relation to the parent or offspring.

Homemade shouldn't say I believe in spirits, but say I believe in God. God is spirit. He is also man. We are like Him, but we are imperfect. He is perfection. He is good. We too have a spirit. Know this, that spirits never die. The body does, but the spirit lives on, until the second death.WORKERS. now ANGELS are gods workers.

TRUE WE DO BELIEVE IN SPIRITS

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.

No, Cloning is an expensive means of reproduction. It would be much cheaper and easier to breed cannon fodder by the old fashion means.

generally between 2 and 5k.

He cloned a sheep named Dolly.

there were 23 countries, but now there are none due to the scientific community and religious community.

There are quite a few main steps in cloning a sheep. The first main step is to collect a sample to clone.
