Virginia Morell Cloning

In the article “A clone of one’s own” by Virginia Morell, explains how cloning works and the steps to perform it. A French chemist heard that a Scottish scientist had produced a sheep cloned from an adult cell. Rael had predicted the development twenty three years before. Valiant Venture offers a service to help parents who want to have a child cloned from them. As of late February, it had a list if more than a hundred people who would like to be cloned for a minimum fee of $200,000. Making a human clone is not a matter of following a recipe. Scientists first began trying to clone animals using adult cells in 1938. In the 1970’s, frogs were cloned via the nuclear transfer method, however, there can still be damage to the DNA. French chemist heard a sheep was cloned from an adult cell. In late February, had a list of more than 100 people wanting to be cloned. More people are wanting to be cloned because they think they’ll live longer but it won’t work. In 1938, first attempt at cloning animals and in 1970’s, frogs were cloned. They finally cloned animals, now they’re going to try the

When they finally made cloning happen, after years of ethical hand wringing and science-fiction fantasy, it was done in such a low key way by researchers so quiet and self-effacing that the world nearly missed it. Once it was out, the news that human embryos had been cloned, flew around the world with the speed of sound bouncing off of satellites. Critics decried the commercialization of fertility technology. Scientists steeled themselves against a backlash they feared would obstruct a promising field of research. One way to look at the future of cloning is to look at the livestock industry. More than a decade has passed since the first calves, lambs and piglets were cloned and yet there were no dairy herds composed of carbon copy cows, no pigpens filled with identical
