The term also refers to the production of multiple copies of a product such as digital media or software The term clone is derived from , the Greek word for "trunk, branch", referring to the process whereby a new plant can be created from a twig. In horticulture , the spelling clon was used until the twentieth century; the final e came into use to indicate the vowel is a "long o" instead of a "short o". Since the term entered the popular lexicon in a more general context, the spelling clone has been used exclusively.

Cloning in biotechnology refers to processes used to create copies of DNA fragments (molecular cloning), cells (cell cloning), or organisms. Topics of Interest The term clone is derived from the Greek word for "trunk, branch", referring to the process whereby a new plant can be created from a twig. Molecular cloning refers to the procedure of isolating a defined DNA sequence and obtaining multiple copies of it in vivo. Cloning is frequently employed to amplify DNA fragments containing genes, but it can be used to amplify any DNA sequence such as promoters, non-coding sequences, chemically synthesised oligonucleotides and randomly fragmented DNA. Cloning is used in a wide array of biological experiments and technological applications such as large scale protein production.

On January 8, 2001, scientists at Advanced Cell Tec­hnology, Inc., announced the birth of the first ­clone of an endangered animal, a baby bull gaur (a large wild ox from India and southeast Asia) named Noah. Although Noah died of an infection unrelated to the procedure, the experiment demonstrated that it is possible to save endangered species through cloning. Cloning is the process of making a geneti- cally identical organism through nonsexual means. It has been used for many years to produce plants (even growing a plant from a cutting is a type of cloning).

Ian Wilmut and a group of Scottish scientists announced that they had successfully cloned a sheep named Dolly If you stood Dolly beside a "naturally" conceived sheep, you wouldn't notice any differences between the two. In fact, to pinpoint the only major distinguishing factor between the two, you'd have to go back to the time of conception because Dolly's embryo developed without the presence of sperm. Instead, Dolly began as a cell from another sheep that was fused via electricity with a donor egg. Just one sheep no hanky-panky involved.

Further information might be found on the talk page (May 2009) This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards Please improve this article if you can. The talk page may contain suggestions. (November 2007) Human cloning is the creation of a genetically identical copy of a human. It does not usually refer to monozygotic multiple births , human cell or tissue reproduction. The ethics of cloning is an extremely controversial issue. The term is generally used to refer to artificial human cloning; human clones in the form of identical twins are commonplace, with their cloning occurring during the natural process of reproduction. There are two commonly discussed types of human cloning: therapeutic cloning and reproductive cloning. Therapeutic cloning involves cloning cells from an adult for use in medicine and is an active area of research, while reproductive cloning would involve making cloned humans. Such reproductive cloning has not been performed and is illegal in many countries. A third type of cloning called 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.

18. Cloning Ethics cloning Yes or No? cloning, or human somatic nuclear transfer, is the process that allows an organism to give birth to an organism with the same genetic makeup as the organism that http://library.thinkquest.org/TQ0312650/cloning.htm

Cloning Yes or No? 1. DNA from the sheep to be cloned is taken out and isolated. 2. DNA in the egg that will carry Dolly is taken out (this process is called denuclifying). 3. The DNA from the first sheep is put in the egg of a second sheep. 4. When the sheep "implanted" in this egg is born, it has the same genetic structure as the first sheep. It is a clone. When Dolly was cloned, a world of controversy started to surround cloning. However, since Dolly, other mammals, like pigs, have been cloned and research continues into animal cloning at this time. Animal cloning and human cloning (especially) create controversy. People around the world are divided on the subject of cloning. The U.S. Senate recently passed a bill (the final vote was 241 to 155) outlawing the cloning of humans and any research on human cloning in the United States. The bill also threatened fines of up to $1 million and 10 years in prison for activities related to cloning. There are, however, benefits as well as potential dangers in cloning people and animals. Let's discuss them now. The Pros Many people say that cloning is beneficial to both individuals and to the human race in general. People in the agriculture business could increase quality and quantity of beef by cloning livestock with desirable characteristics.

Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free Cloning First published Wed Sep 17, 2008 Dolly, the first mammal cloned from an adult body cell, came into the world as innocent as a lamb; but she has caused panic and controversy, as well as a vast academic and popular literature on the ethics and regulation of cloning. Following the announcement of her birth in February 1997 (Wilmut et al. 1997), an important question arose: if the cloning of mammals is possible, will scientists soon start cloning human beings as well; and if they did, would this be wrong or unwise? More than ten years later, many countries have legally prohibited human cloning or are in the process of doing so, and various institutions, including the United Nations and the European Parliament, are calling for a worldwide ban on all forms of human cloning. This entry describes the most important areas of disagreement regarding the ethics of human cloning, since human cloning has been the main topic of the cloning debate. 1. What is Cloning?
