Human cloning. Conceptual artwork representing human cloning by a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) strand crossing a profile of a face (right) and a CT scan of a human head (background). Cloning is a method of producing genetically identical copies of organisms. DNA from an individual,the store of all its genetic information,is copied and used to build a complete replica of the original organism. DNA's atoms,here represented as balls and sticks,are colour-coded: carbon (white),hydrogen (light blue),phosphorus (orange),nitrogen (dark blue) and oxygen (red). The sequence of bases linking the helical strands is unique to each individual,and determines an organism's characteristics | |
