Cloning

   

 

   Some days when I am very tired, I think that it would be nice to have a clone that helps me with my homework and makes the housework for me, but after a while I think if cloning is ethical or if it could cause an unbalance to the human life? Well, in the last ten years the cloning has caused a big controversy around the world.  Cloning is the creation of individuals with the same genetic characteristics of another. The clones are physically and genetically identic to the other one and scientists use the DNA in order to obtain all the biologic and genetic information that they need in order to obtain the perfect clone. The science said that cloning is a good option for reviving extinct species like dinosaurs, help in the medical study of illness and virus, reproducing pets like dogs and cats that maybe died and the owner wants to have the same pet forever,   helping couple that can’t have children because they have some physical problem or if they want to replace a deceased child. By the other hand, some religion and social groups think that cloning interferes with the natural evolution. They say that the only goal of cloning is to create the “Perfect Human,” with a sub normal intelligence and physical and mental abilities. It would be like design a baby, so you could choose how you want your baby, the sex, the weight and the length. Even, the eyes, skin and hair color. It could mean that with the cloning, in a future we wouldn’t need a mother and a father for have a baby, so it could have an effect on familiar relationship. Until now, in the word have been cloning 24 different animals. They include camels, cats, deer and dogs.  The price for cloning a pet is between $100000 and $200000. In my opinion, I think that the cloning could be a good way for help the science with the study of many illnesses, but I’m not agree with the human cloning. We don't need perfect babes.
