What is the process of cloning?A skin cell containing 46 chromosomes is taken from a male specimen. An egg cell (which contains only 23 chromosomes) is taken from a female specimen. The nuclei are taken from both cells by a micropipette. The skin nucleus from the skin cell containing all 46 chromosomes is inserted into the egg cell. The egg cell now has all the instructions to clone the male specimen. The egg cell is then surgically inserted into the female specimens womb. Nine months later a clone of the male specimen is born.
When could cloning be used for good?Cloning could be used for good by helping recreate some animals or creatures that are or are already extinct. it can help humans understand creatures that we were too late to discover.
When could cloning be used for bad?Cloning could be used for bad by forcing animals or people to have children. it could damage organs fatal for survival and lead to death. You could also use it on a creature, fail and create a deformed or mutant version of the creature.
Do you think cloning is a good idea? Why/ why not?I don't think cloning
