cloning2

dical research and pharmaceutics and can be produced through nuclear transfer (Encarta). The production of trangenic animals is time consuming, expensive, and most importantly inefficient.Through cloning, organ transplantation may become a more successful process. It will help in the shortage for transplantation. Xenotransplatation, transplanting organs from on especies to another, provides a solution to organ shortage (Internet). As a result of other organisms having different protein coats on the cell surface than human cells there is often rejection. Through nuclear transfer, transgenic animals can be produced to create human proteins on their cell surfaces (Silver87). This process would reduce the risk of rejection during xenptransplatation. According to future cloning research, human organs for personal transplation.Cloning in general may benefit future research. Animals could be cloned especially for research. Identical animals would reduce variability in experiments. Consequently, scientist would then need fewer animals for an experiment. Three generations of genetically identical cloned laboratory mice have been produced, indicating that cloning will be an indispensable tool to the research biologist in the future according to scientists at the University of Hawaii.In recent interview Lee Silver, a biologist at Princeton University, was asked about his most controversial claim. Will genetic engineering ultimately lead to two or more human species that would not be able to interbreed? His response was, I believe this could happen because engineering of embryos is inevitable. I can see ways in witch genetic engineering will be made safe and efficient, and there will be a market for it-parents who want their children advantages in life(Boyce1).There is already a huge gap between the rich and the poor, and it shows itself in what parents can do for their children. The children of people who have money arguably get bet...
