To determine:
The way human cloning and stem cell therapy relate to human reproduction and development.
Introduction:
Cloning is a process of producing genetically identical copies of a cell or an organism. Cloning occurs during the replication of a cell asexually without undergoing any genetic alteration or recombination. Cloning is generally defined as the multiplication of any kind of biological material such as a piece of DNA.
To determine:
The reason that human cloning and stem cell therapies are controversial.
Introduction:
Stem cells have the potential to form every tissue in the human body. These cells have the potential of self-renewal and produce the offsprings that are genetically identical to the originating cell.

- Molecular Biology Question You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Explain/discuss how “slow stop” and “quick/fast stop” mutants wereused to identify different protein involved in DNA replication in E. coli.arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Question A gene that codes for a protein was removed from a eukaryotic cell and inserted into a prokaryotic cell. Although the gene was successfully transcribed and translated, it produced a different protein than it produced in the eukaryotic cell. What is the most likely explanation?arrow_forward
