Angeline Foote and I were working on this project together. We recorded a debate about whether reproductive cloning research should take place or not. Chimwemwe and Chrispin were also part of this debate.

The video took place in the english room (Mrs. Todd). Sometime later, our class had to watch the video and vote. Majority of the class voted for reproductive cloning research should not take place.

There are two types of cloning. Therapeutic cloning an reproductive cloning
 * __TYPES OF CLONING__**

Therapeutic cloning: It means copying cells to help in medicine. At the moment, if an organ like a heart wears out, the patient either dies or waits for a transplant. There are not enough donated hearts, and they can be rejected, as the body thinks they are foreign. Theu use stem cells to produce a complete organ. The cloned cells will contain the nucleus from the person's own cells, so the new organ will not be rejected by the body.

Reproductive cloning: This type of cloning is used to clone a whole human body. If you lose your loved ones you can replace them with a look alike. In reproductive cloning, they take out a fertilised egg from a womans ovary then they suck out DNA's out of the egg. Dna from the dead cells taken from the dead body are injected into the empty egg. The egg is simulated with an electric jolt to encourage it to start dividing. If the egg developes into an embryo it is allowed to grow in the lab until big enough to be implanted in a womb. You are allowed to chose genes that the baby should have. though there are some terrible consequences due to reprodeuctive cloning. The baby could be born as a disabled kid.
