2000 - Cloning Colony

Human cloning is the creation of a genetically identical copy of a human. It does not refer to monozygotic multiple births or the reproduction of humans/animals cells or tissue. The ethics of cloning is an extremely controversial issue. The term is generally used to refer to artificial human cloning; human clones in the form of identical twins are commonplace, with their cloning occurring during the natural process of reproduction.
There are two commonly discussed types of human cloning: therapeutic cloning and reproductive cloning.

  • Therapeutic cloning involves cloning cells from an adult for use in medicine and transplants, and is an active area of research.
  • Reproductive cloning would involve making cloned humans, for couples wanting to have a child, but cannot naturally.
