Cloning is an intricate process that often requires hundreds of attempts before success and allows organisms that reproduce sexually to reproduce asexually by creating genetically identical offspring. The document raises concerns that cloning is not safe or ethical for several reasons. It can result in abnormalities, decreases genetic diversity, and anything affecting the parent would also affect the clone. Cloning could also be misused by dictators to create superior races or allow the rich to buy genetically superior children while the poor get inferior options. The clone may also face identity and psychological issues regarding their predetermined life and lack of choices. For these reasons, the author believes cloning should not be tested on humans or animals until it is proven safe.

Cloning is a very intricate process. It can take hundreds of tries before a
clone can be successful. Cloning is a way for organisms that reproduce sexually to reproduce asexually. It creates offspring that are genetically identical to their parent (they have the exact same genes). The DNA, genes, is the same for the parent and the offspring. Personally, I believe that Cloning is not a good idea. The research that scientists have done is not strong enough to perform on humans. Cloning should not be allowed . Since the genes are the same because of the complicated process where you take the nucleus out of the females egg cell and replace it with a body cells nucleus. Then put the egg cell, with the new nucleus, in the reproductive system of the female again and let the offspring be born. Cloning is not safe; it has produced a lot of mistakes before being successful which include horrible abnormalities. Also, it decreases genetic diversity because the genes are the same, which limits our abilities to adapt . This is not good if the conditions change constantly. Furthermore, anything that affects the parent will affect the offspring because their genetic material is the same. In my opinion I think its dangerous worldwide as well because if a dictator or ruler wants to make a superior race, they can do so by cloning; this can cause chaos to others. According to as.wvu.edu, cloning can produce psychological distress and harm in the clone. The clone may feel that their life may already be laid out before them and have no choices but to be like the person they were cloned from . This may cause a lot of psychological harm to the clone . They will also face
psychological problems with what is their identity. Moreover, human cloning
might be used by for financial gain. The embryos could be bought and sold, which would lead to financial gain. This could lead to class favoritism on the eggs available. Only the rich could afford the best children . Poor families would have to settle with eggs that are damaged or imperfect. This is not fair to anyone. Others might say that cloning is helpful and useful . They might say its good for infertile couples. So they can reproduce but they can just adopt, its the same thing. They might also say, they want their offspring to have a specific talent that they had and can do this by cloning . Or they can bring back dead children. Or even cloning body part can serve as a lifesaver if an organ stops working and that organ is vital, they can just clone another organ and replace it . None of this is correct to do; testing on animals isnt safe or right either . Theyre just using them to see if its possible but its not . Cloning is wrong and should not be tested on humans or animals . Scientists should do extensive research until they are sure it will work . Humans will just be tested and look at as lab rats . If cloning was possible, it will just create global tribulations and more unfairness than what there is already . Cloning should not be done; everyone has the right of being unique .
