Cloning Dialoge :: Argumentative Persuasive Topics

Cloning Dialoge The setting is a small colleges biological science class where only trine students out of twenty students have scratch to class because it is the last day before spring break begins. The three students names are Andy, Kristen, and Eric. Seeing only three students in the class, the prof changes his lecture material into a class discussion involving the recent scientific breakthrough in the field of copy. During the discussion, the professor explains how the clone of a sheep named chick was done. In addition, the students and the professor share their views on the advantageous and the detrimental military position of cloning either humans or animals. Professor Good dawning class I am sure that you all have comprehend about the recent scientific discovery in the run of cloning. If not, waive me to fill you in on this current controversial scientific discovery. hold up week, a Scottish scientist named Dr. Ian Wilmut from the Roslin Institute in Edinburgh, Sc otland, successfully cloned an adult sheep. I said adult sheep because scientists already have the ability to clone sheep and calves, for soil purposes, from undifferentiated embryonic electric cellphones. Is there any questions so far? Kristen Um, yes, professor. Would you satisfy elaborate on the term undifferentiated cell? Also, the word cloning sounds like something you would hear from science fiction movies or novels--isnt the cloning process very complicated? Professor To answer your first question, Kristen, an undifferentiated cell is a cell that has the ability to create other specific cells, much(prenominal) as skin, hair, brain, and muscles, as it activates certain genes on chromosomes. For your second question, the concept of cloning is really not that complicated to understand. Allow me to explain as I split Dr. Wilmuts cloning process into three steps. During the first step, udder cells from a six-year-old Finn Dorset ewe were taken and placed into a culture dish. The culture dish, containing low levels of nutrients, starving the cells, causing them to stop their dividing and hibernate its active genes. Meanwhile, the nucleus with its DNA from an sterile egg--also called an oocyte--taken from a Scottish Blackface ewe, is sucked out with a hair thin pipette, passing the empty egg with all its cellular tools needed to produce an embryo. By the way, this process is called the nuclear transfer. Okay, now onto the second step the egg cell and a donor cell are placed next to all(prenominal) other and fused together, like soap bubbles, by an electric pulse.
