ANIMAL CLONING QUESTIONS
2: Is it a genetic technology

3: How is it currently being used?

4: What are three things we might be able to do with this technology in the future?

5: What are your thoughts on the ethical implications of this technology?

Yes animal cloning is a genetic technology.

3. Currently somatic cell nucleus transfer technique is used in animal cloning.

3. The livestock copuld be increase, high protein meat and milk is obtained and saving endangered species from extinction.

4. The mating process will stop in cloning process which is unethical.

Explanation:

1. Animal Cloning is a genetic technology in which genetically identical clones of animals are produced from somatic cell nuclear transfer technique.

3. Currently somatic cell nuclear transfer or Roslin technique is used as follows:

In somatic cell nuclear transfer a nucleus from a somatic cell is taken and injected into an unfertilized ovum of the surrogate mother. Somatic cell could be taken from udders, blood,skin etc.

The somatic cell and nucleus is allowed to fertilized artificially by providing medium and let it divide to become an embryo and placed in surrogate mother to develop.

4. The breeds with superior yields are obtained from this technique as follows:

The endangered species could be cloned and prevented from extinction.

Livestock production can be increased from healthy donors producing healthy offsprings.

High milk and meat content  yielding breed could be cloned.

5. Ethical implications of the technology are:

The use of animal in animal cloning will be unethical as only one parent is involved. The genetic variation will cease this way which occurs naturally. The mating process will stop in cloning so it is unethical and against nature's law.

b would be the right answer

the fact that your name is twinkie makes me not wanna you at so im not
