Cloning

Cloning is a huge topic on everyone's mind these days. There are several types of cloning, Molecular Cloning which separates a defined sequence of DNA and getting multiple copies of it. The second type of cloning is Cellular Cloning, in this cloning, its deriving a population of cells from a single cell. The next cloning system is Therapeutic Cloning where the object is to harvest stem cells that can be used to study human development. The last cloning system is Organism Cloning where the procedure is to create a multicellular organism, that looks close to another. Organism Cloning is an asexual form of cloning. It is also the most common type of cloning, used to clone animals like cows and pigs for food. Cloning is an important topic because it helps to make more food out of animals. This information has been out since February 2007.
