Is it used today? Yes it is used in today´s society

Are there ethical issues? There are religiousa and societal ethical issues

Pro- copies made of animals with the potential benefits for the fields of medicine and agriculture

Con-its inefficient

Tech' the tech used is used to split embryos to make these clones

Gnome' it is the basic iingredient for cloning


What is it? Gmo's are plants or animals that are genetically modified

Is it used today? Yes it is

Issues? Moral issues and other scientists

Pro- could feed millions in the future

Con- genomes may no respond the right way

Tech- the tech used is used to extract or insert genomes

Genomes- the materials being tested

What is it? An ongoing argument of do stem cells from adults have the same capacity or potential of embryos

Is it used today? The argument is still going on

Issues? There are little to no issues

Pro- doesnt harm the adult stem cells

Con-the embryonic cells are sometimes rejected when put back in the body

Tech' the tech used is used to extract and implant the cells
