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.

- A 25-year-old woman presents to the emergency department with a 2-day history of fever, chills, severe headache, and confusion. She recently returned from a trip to sub-Saharan Africa, where she did not take malaria prophylaxis. On examination, she is febrile (39.8°C/103.6°F) and hypotensive. Laboratory studies reveal hemoglobin of 8.0 g/dL, platelet count of 50,000/μL, and evidence of hemoglobinuria. A peripheral blood smear shows ring forms and banana-shaped gametocytes.
