As for manipulation by human cloning, contrary to popular belief, it is also long overdue. Indeed, first in plants, cloning results in the plant cuttings: in taking a rod and the replanting creates a new plant, which have exactly the same genetic inheritance, it is a clone.
Dolly,a female sheep, was the first mammal to be cloned from an adult somatic cell, using the process of nuclear transfer.
The technique of cloning provides a solution for the survival of endangered species. So in January 2001, on a farm in Iowa was born wild ox. Noah is the first clone obtained from the cells of an animal in danger of extinction. It will still required 700 eggs from cow to arrive at the result.
But is striving to repopulate the species almost extinct from a very low genetic diversity? Will extend the feat in recreating species disappeared completely as the Tasmanian tiger that some would like to see revived?
If you don't understand a sentence,say it
