Clone
Cloning is the artificial or natural production
of an identical copy of something and generally refers to
the copying of a living organism such as a plant ,animal, cell,
bacterium etc.
In nature the process can occur naturally through asexual
reproduction where no mixed genders are required i.e no
necessity for male and female genes to produce offspring. The
lack of sharing of parental genes confers both advantages and
disadvantages in offspring.
The clear advantage in sexual reproduction is the diversity
that ensues and the facilitation of an evolutionary trend in a
species or organism.
On the other hand the relative perfection of an
identically copied genome also brings with it some
potential advantages. This is not surprising given that nature
itself uses both methods to good effect.
This website will look at all aspects of this rapidly
emerging technology and especially the implications for
industry and society as a whole.
