... This process has been successful in the cloning of mammals such as cattle, pigs, rabbits, mice, sheep and goat. The second process is called nuclear transfer or cell nuclear replacement. This process was used to produce Dolly the sheep, ...

... organism gives rise to two or more daughter cells. Most single celled organisms reproduce by the asexual process known as fission, which is commonly called mitosis. Fission (or Mitosis) is the division of one cell into two identical daughter cells. ...

... negative implications. But there are many other circumstances (such as the replacement of a dead child with a genetically identical copy) in which the motivations are likely to be much more ambiguous, if not overtly unethical. In my opinion, we ...
