The term cloning describes a number of different processes that can be used to produce genetically identical copies of a biological entity. The copied material, which has the same genetic makeup as the original, is referred to as a clone. Researchers have cloned a wide range of biological materials, including genes, cells, tissues and even entire organisms, such as a sheep.

Answer 2

• Clones are superior breeding animals used to produce healthier offspring.
• Animal cloning offers great benefits to consumers, farmers, and endangered species:
• Cloning allows farmers and ranchers to accelerate the reproduction of their most productive livestock in order to better produce safe and healthy food.
• scientists hope that cloned cells will be used to treat serious diseases such as heart problems, diabetes and spinal injuries.
• Scientists hope to remove stem cells from a five day old cloned embryo and grow specific cell lines from them which may treat disease.
