Human cloning

LaMichael & Demetrius

Problem

  • Causes problems with development.
  • The failure rate vastly outweighs the success rate. 

Rate of cloning

pros

  • Defective genes could be eliminated.
  • Faster recovery from traumatic injury.

cons

  • There is a reduced sense of individuality.
  • There is a possibility of faster aging. 
  • It may reduce the overall value of human life

There have been many cases where cloning had been beneficial. there have also been cases where there have been side affects as shown in the last slide.

  • Reproductive cloning is the production of a genetic duplicate of an existing organism
