| Reproductive cloning, therapeutic cloning and gene cloning are three types of artificial cloning. Reproductive cloning produces an animal that is genetically identical to the donor animal (Cloning Fact Sheet, 2017). This is done through somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). Reproductive cloning involves implantation of a cloned embryo into a uterus (Rugnetta, 2019). This allows the embryo to develop into a fetus. This type of cloning experiment was performed for over 40 years through embryo splitting (Rugnetta, 2019). In the 1990s, reproductive cloning saw major changes. This was after the birth of “Dolly the sheep”. Dolly was generated through SCNT (Rugnetta, 2019). Reproductive cloning using SCNT is considered to be very harmful because fetuses of embryos cloned through this process are usually born with birth defects. Also, fetuses born this way rarely survive gestation (Rugnetta, 2019). | Reproductive cloning, therapeutic cloning and gene cloning are three types of artificial cloning.
