Cloning and Stem Cells
Stem cells are a type of cell that can differentiate into a variety of specialised cells throughout the body. Cloning is a collection of scientific processes and techniques that allow us to replicate any biological material, such as cells or DNA, as many times as we wish. The technique of creating a genetically identical replica of a cell or an organism is known as cloning. Cloning occurs frequently in nature, such as when a cell copies itself asexually without undergoing any genetic alterations or recombination. The cloned cells could be transplanted into the patient in the future to replace damaged cells. Both stem cell research and cloning have gained a lot more attention in the previous few decades than they ever had before. Cloning and stem cell research have both given the scientific community a new age of optimism for patients. Researchers can use cloning to make new cells and then remove stem cells from them without damaging living creatures.
