1 Cloning and the Genome Project

2 July 5 1996,Dolly,the first mammal to be cloned from an adult somatic cell was born

3 IVF(in-vitro fertilization) IVF(in-vitro fertilization) July 25 1978, Robert Edwards made the human’s egg fertilized in the test tube It means that the human can be fertilized and form new lives outside the womb He won the Nobel Prize in medicine in 2010

6 Should human cloning be legalized?

7 Benefits? 1. Infertility 2. Curing Diseases 3. Body Replacements 4.Genetic Illness

8 Disadvantages? 1. Religion 2. Sub-Human 3. Embryos at Risk
