❒ Cloning in biology is the process of producing similar populations of genetically identical individuals that occur in nature when organisms such as bacteria , insects or plants reproduce asexually .
➼ Any two animals which contain exactly the same genes are called 'genetically identical' .
➼ An animal which is genetically identical to its parent is called a clone .
➼ The cloning of an animal is done by the transfer of 'nucleus' of a cell.
➼ Dolly was a female sheep and the first mammal to be cloned from an adult somatic cell , using the process of nuclear transfer .
➼ She was cloned by Lan Wilmut , Keith Campbell and colleagues .
❒ Yes , cloning is dangerous because :-
- It has low success rate
- Short life-span
- suffers from genetic diseases
