Cloning Technologies and More
Science, in the past few years has made great strides in the field of mammal reproduction. They've worked for years to find out exactly what happens during a pregnancy, and also how it works. We've come so far in these stages as to gain the knowledge needed to make oral contraceptives. However, I am not writing this report to enlighten you on these subjects, or to debate the ethical issues of them. This report is focusing on the creation of life, not the destruction of one. Up until a few years ago, we've only known one way to reproduce, but now, thanks to the research and endless hours of experiments by those dedicated to finding out if it really is possible another way, there is a new method of reproduction called cloning. I'm not going to debate the moral issues of this subject, but rather tell you how it's achieved.There are two methods of cloning. The first, called embryo cloning, has been achieved years before in frogs, other amphibians, mammals, and once it was tried with humans, however both attempts to do this with the humans failed. The second method of cloning is achieved by using an adult cell, not an embryo. To do this scientists remove an egg cell from a
While many believe cloning is an unnecessary evil, others believe it will become a chief way reproduce crops, or livestock that have favorable qualities about them. I believe that cloning can be useful in these ways, but very dangerous in others. What I'm saying is that we're meddling with technologies we don't know much about and further research should be done to discover what is needed to master this science before we go making our own species of animals. We are still like novices to this new science, and should respect it, not toy with it. In the present and future of cloning Some have had ideas of using cloning to bring back extinct species, and, mainly, help the endangered species go back to how they once were.
