PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Problem
- Causes problems with development.
- The failure rate vastly outweighs the success rate.
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.
clones
- In this age, cloning may be beneficial for producing organs, no more lookng
- for organ donors
There are three different types of artificial cloning: gene cloning, reproductive cloning and therapeutic cloning.
cloning
- Gene cloning is the act of making copies, or clones, of a single gene.
- Reproductive cloning is the production of a genetic duplicate of an existing organism
the problem with cloning humans?
Untitled Slide
- increase carrying capacity of ciies
- increase population
- deformation
Untitled Slide
- that this is unreal
- uneasy
- borderline fictional
Are these problems manmade?
Yes. Infertile people are discriminated against. Men are made to feel like they are not "real men.
Untitled Slide
- what are groups impacted by this?
- why does all of this matter
many ethical and moral concerns have arisen over potential applicaions of the cloning technology
