STUDENT’S POST:

Scientist been talking about cloning for centuries to improve human life and event down to food products. We must remember that human cloning is illegal in some states, and institutions that receive U.S. federal funding are prohibited from experimenting with it, but there is no federal ban on human cloning in the United States.  We just can’t use cloning for financial gain.

Question we have to ask is, what is cloning? Cloning is the development of offspring that are genetically identical to their parents. We have to understand the pros and cons of cloning to better understand the process of cloning. There are pros of cloning like genetically alter animals to produce organs that can more easily be transplanted into humans., allow individuals or couples to reproduce through means other than sexual reproduction, and grow replacement human organ tissue from scratch. There are also some cons of cloning like cloning children could foster an understanding that children can be designed and replicated to the parents’ wishes, 95% of animal cloning has ended in failure due to genetic defects, and cloning is considered unsafe because of it and some researchers believe that eating GMO foods can contribute to the development of cancer.  I think we have to do more research and especially focus on the important thing that may need to be cloned are my not. But one thing we know is that cloning can get out of hand and cause us as human a major setback.
