CLONING
ADVANTAGES
OF CLONING
There are many advantages of cloning.......
Cloning method really gives the human race lots of advantages. These advantages nowadays manage to fulfill the human race needs. Some of the advantages are stated as below.
Genetic Engineering/Modification
- Genetic engineering is a very wide study where we manipulate the cells at genetic level.
Thus, it leads to clonning. We can manipulate the nucleotide sequences provided we know
what it
stands for. Thus we might be able to determine what kind of genes that we want and
what kind of genes that we don't want.
-For example , parents can choose the desire genes that they want for their child.
Provide Treatments for diseases
- This is acheived by cloning the stem cells.
- The reason why we use stem cells is because stem cells can transform into any type of
cells provided the prompting is correct.
- It not only replace damage tissues or cells but also other types of illness such as
Parkinson Disease.
Organs for transplant
- In order to do an organ transplant towards a human, the donor must also be a mammal.
This is proven when scientists from New York and Japan manage to use the organs of a clone
pig
and tranplant it into human body. However, it is temporary until the patient finds
a suitable donor.
-By doing this organ transplant we will be able to reduce the death rate and enable
patients with organs problem to live longer.
Help to improve lives
- we can clone genetic modified anials to have medical, agricultural
and industrial applications.
- The best example is a GM (Genetic Modified )cow can produce milk with certain drugs
inside in mass production.
