| Clones are referred to as organisms that are exact genetic copies of each other. To say the least, every single piece of their DNA sequence is identical ("Cloning LiteratureWatch '', 2000). Cloning can occur both naturally and artificially. We observe many examples of natural cloning around us, for example bacteria reproducing asexually through the process of binary fission is an example of cloning (Noh & Neumann, 2001). Our cells undergo cloning everyday through mitosis. And lastly, another really cool example of cloning are identical twins. All these events have inspired scientists to experiment cloning through artificial means. Science has gone from cloning single cells to entire organisms and advancements continue to happen today (Noh & Neumann, 2001). The three types of artificial cloning that we will be discussing today include reproductive cloning, therapeutic cloning and gene cloning (Noh & Neumann, 2001). | Clones are referred to as organisms that are exact genetic copies of each other.
