What is Cloning? To put it simply, cloning is the process of
making an identical copy of something. There are two main types
of cloning: Therapeutic Cloning and Reproductive Cloning. The
most talked about type of cloning from a media and awareness
standpoint is Reproductive Cloning; it is an asexual means of
reproduction by which genetically identical copies of organisms
are created. Many plants can do this naturally, but scientists
are now able to artificially recreate this technique with
animals and even humans. To gain a better understanding of how
exactly cloning works or for greater detail on Therapeutic
Cloning or Reproductive Cloning, check out: What has been
cloned? A sheep named Dolly was the first mammal to be cloned
using the DNA from other adult sheep. A team of scientists in
Edinburg, Scotland who were hoping to discover if it was
possible to create livestock with particular genetic traits
created Dolly. Her existence proved that a new being can be
created using adult cells. Unfortunately, Dolly
