Re: With present cloning technology, how possible is it to clone human beings?

Dear Ella,

You have probably read in the news that scientists have been able  to clone 
different animals such as: sheep, pigs or mice. In theory, the technology 
exists to clone a human being. However, at the moment, most countries have 
laws that prevent the cloning of humans. The implications of cloning a human 
is still very much in debate. The development of policies regulating cloning 
of humans will probably evolve over time


To learn more about cloning, I suggest you look at the Mad Scientist 
archives and search for cloning. 

You can also look at the following link: 
www.madsci.org/posts/archives/mar2000/95253118.Cb.r.html, where I have 
explained the difficulties of cloning a specific organ. Currently, there are 
studies in which scientists are looking at the cloning of tissues and organs 
instead of cloning an entire human being. 

Good luck and have fun with science!
